We couldn't leave this country without taking a picture of the Gelato. This is how they present ice cream. I don't care if you are lactose intolerant, you will eat this stuff. It is more like straight cream in a souffle.
I think we have tried all the flavors and make sure that Todd orders first. For whatever reason, he always picks the best flavors so we are following suit.
This is the City Hall tower in Il Campo. The tower is 100 yards tall and boasts 391 steps. The kids counted.
A view from the City Hall's bell tower staircase. We were halfway there.
The girls and I in one of the alcoves on the way up. If you look behind us you can see the piazza below.
Almost at the top.

View from the top of Siena's bell tower. You can see the Tuscan countryside in the background. We passed a lot of hills with crops and grapevines on our way into this town.









That looks beautiful - worth the climb!
