Day 63: Leaning Fools of Pisa

7/12/2013

Ok, perhaps fools is a little harsh.  Of course, the people I’m about to describe are not necessarily fools. They just looked a bit foolish for a moment.  And I captured that moment on camera.

Our route of travel from Levanto to Florence took us by Pisa, so how could we not stop and see the famous tower?  The tower was pretty cool, but we spent most of our time watching the other tourists attempting to photograph one another holding up the tower, knocking it over, kicking it down, stabbing it, etc.  Here are a few examples:
Picture
A typical scene near the tower. When you take the tower out of the picture, it looks pretty ridiculous. There is even an ambulance nearby in case foolishness leads to injury.
Picture
Making his country proud.
Picture
I'm not sure anyone else was even photographing this one.
Picture
Everyone around this guy is in a state of disbelief. I think that might be his daughter looking away in shame.
Picture
If we didn’t have the photo, no one would believe it.
Picture
The trifecta.
Picture
I’m not sure this one totally understood why she was being asked to stand this way.
Picture
The little guy knew better, but his mom was determined.
Picture
Everyone stop!!! (We agree)
Picture
The first of the kickers...
Picture
Another kicker. The photographer had a very interesting perspective.
Picture
This guy must have been Delirious to wear that outfit in the heat. Eddie Murphy called from 1983 and wants his jacket back.
Picture
This dude sort of pulls it off. Notice our old friend Delirious in the foreground taking a mental note of his moves.
Picture
This guy had no idea what he was doing. Whatever he was doing, he was having fun doing it.
Picture
This one was adorable. Much too cute to make fun of.
Picture
Doublemint gum ad?
Picture
I think you are meant to believe she seduced the tower over.
Picture
This kid was actually falling asleep while posing.
Picture
Tai chi anyone?
So there you have it - humans at their finest.  But of course, we too are just simple humans so how could we not join in on the fun?
