So today was a field trip to the city of
San Gimigano. The city was very small and very similar to Siena except it seemed more touristy. We were told that all the height of a tower in the city attached to a home represented how rich or wealthy you were at the time. Alot of the tours were torn down but we got to climb one tower that had 280 steps!!!!

The way the sun hit the city and the clear sky...really made the view. We definitely were lucky on going on a nice sunny day. We also learned about Saint Fina, who saved the town by putting out fires and healing the sick through miracles. We got some free GELATO...i got Dark Chocolate...was So So Goood!!!!!! We also stopped by the well that used to be the center of San Gimigano's water supply...(turn around...close your eyes...make a WISH...and through your EURO in) #NEVERSAYNEVER cause Dreams Do Come True!
