们一大早来到了比萨斜塔(Torre di Pisa),这座位于奇迹广场上的独立式钟楼。出生于比萨城的伽利略,曾在斜塔上做自由落体实验,由此发现了自由落体定律。

广场的草坪上散布着一组宗教建筑:大教堂、洗礼堂与斜塔。

对比儿子的斜塔与女儿的斜塔,你能看出有什么不同吗?

斜塔不那么斜了,而且大理石变白了。由于斜塔的倾斜度过于危险,从199017日起停止向游人开放,经过整整11年的修缮,斜塔被扶正了44厘米,自20011215日起再次向游人开放。

斜塔的倾斜度得到了恢复,于是比萨人再接再厉,组成10人修复小组,用激光、凿子等清洗塔身。美容工作进行了8年多,24424块大理石焕然一新,广场上的建筑恢复了昔日的风采。

在比萨斜塔旁照相,许多人假装扶正斜塔。对准两只手,又要做出使劲的样子,难度还真不小呐。女儿试了好几张照片,总是做不对头,不过这也算是斜塔之乐吧。

奇迹广场上有一片青草地,边上还有许多出售纪念品的小店,店主用中文叫卖着他们的产品。

然后经过意大利黄金海岸线,我们来到了下一站:摩纳哥。这是世界上第二小的国家,位于欧洲地中海之滨,三面皆被法国包围。蒙特卡罗是摩纳哥最大的城市,也是世界著名的三大赌城之一。知道另外两家赌城吗?美国的城拉斯维加斯与中国的澳门

摩纳哥是一个迷人的国家,亚热带的地中海气候,阳光灿烂,气温适宜。七百余年历史的古老皇室,格蕾丝王妃的传奇经历,都为这个小国增添了神秘的色彩。

从停车场一出来,就看见了地中海,于是跟着众人一起往上走。

爬上转了几个弯的阶梯。

我们看到了蒙地卡罗的全景。

蒙地卡罗的赌场富丽堂皇,建于1863年,是一幢古色古香、巍峨的宫殿式建筑物,门前有一大片花圃广场,还有反射蔚蓝天色的圆镜。

赌场前面的热带植物园也别具特色。

当然蒙地卡罗最迷人的还是那片海,那片蔚蓝色的、摄人心魂的大海。直立的峭壁、靓丽的游艇,以及停泊在港湾里的大游轮,让人沉醉于云里雾里,轻飘飘的,像是漫步于一副美丽的长卷。一点点展开,每一缕光线都是销魂的色,每一片色彩都是迷幻的空。

噢,太多的美景,贪婪地捕捉着,将美丽装进照相机。

知道这两尊雕塑叫什么?亚当和夏娃。

快乐的时光总是短暂的,我们又要走了,沿着法国黄金海岸线走了。

路上在香水城停留,参观了香水的制作过程。

傍晚的时候我们来到尼斯,本来要去裸露上身的海滩开眼,没有预料碰到自行车比赛,四周的道路都被警察封住了,最后只能带着遗憾离开了尼斯。

­­­­女儿日记

17 day trip – day 13 (transit day)

Pisa: three out of five

Today, I briefly stopped at Pisa to see the leaning tower of Pisa. In most pictures, you can't see how the tower really leans, but it's obvious once up close. I took a lot of pictures there, mostly involving me pushing the tower. In one picture, one another tourist is pushing the tower over and I'm pushing it back up.

Monte Carlo: two out of five

Monte Carlo is in the country of Monaco, which is very small. It's very famous for its casino, but I can't go in it because I'm too young. Monaco is very beautiful. It's built on a mountain overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.

Hotel: one out of five

This hotel is terrible. It's very small and the employees don't seem to even know the proper pool-opening time. Also, the toilet and sink are in different rooms.
