During Sally's recent visit, we returned to Pisa to see the sights. We discovered the Leaning Tower is still leaning.
Sally climbed the tower during a rain shower. She found that the slick, slanted floors and stairs were a challenge but she persevered and climbed the nearly 300 steps to the top of the 8-story tower, taking some photos along the way.
The entry doorway illustrates how much the tower tilts--4°.

Pop Quiz: Galileo supposedly went to the top of the Leaning Tower and dropped two cannonballs. One weighed more than the other. Which one hit the ground first?
