The Saturday before Easter I went to Siena with three other people. We climbed the Torre and visited the Duomo of Siena. The view from the top of the tower was pretty spectacular.
A statue of Romulus and Remus at one of gates through the city walls.
A tunnel opening up onto the Campo, the central piazza of Siena where the Palio horse race is held every year.
The tower that we climbed. The view from the top was amazing.
Liz, Tricia, and Jess who also went to Siena with me.
One of the bells, but not quite at the top.
A view of the Campo from the top of the tower.
I finally broke down and had someone take my picture at the top of the tower.
A nice view of the city and the Duomo of Siena in the background.
