14 th Sopt.

Today the boat docked at Livorno, a fairly industrial town and the main port for Florence.
We were going to Luca and Pisa. Luca is a relatively unspoiled walled  mediaeval town built over a Roman town. It was raining again. Being madiaeval there were the usual  miracles and relics. Boccarini,who played the cello,was born and lived here. There is to be a Rolling Stones concert in just 8 days. We had coffee and tarts in an ancient cellar.
Pisa was totally different. Millions of tourists taking selfies. There was a toilet with just 8 loos for the ladies. You can imagine the queue!
