We arrived at the Siena bus station amid pouring rain and no map to send us on our merry way to the hotel. We struggled through the wet streets with our luggage and no taxis in sight until we finally happened upon our hotel. After lunch, the rain cleared and we hit the pavement to soak up Siena in a day. We began with the town's Duomo before heading to Il Campo for some people watching. We shared a street pizza and beer on the piazza. Later, we returned to the same area for dinner where we took one of my favorite pictures (me enjoying pasta) and Greg enjoyed his favorite meal.
The following morning, we set out to take some pictures now that the sun was out in full force again. While we were sauntering about the city walls, we decided to pop into the Basilica of San Domenico. Low and behold, this church houses the finger and head, but not the body of St. Catherine of Siena. How's that for a surprise?
