Pisans are everywhere. They stealthly put images of their crooked tower on the Ferris wheel at “Effetto Venezia”.In Rome you can have baskets of small Colosseums and, on the side, a few Leaning Towers.Even in Paris someone is selling pizza with the Pisan symbol, and a wrongly spelled “Buon apetito”. They're Pisans, after all.

Lol, I thought you were going to say they're French after all!
Even here you can find Pisan symbols, and wrongly spelled Italian words:)
It makes me wonder what those Pisans say about y'all.
...they are just trying to make you remember and earn a bit of money here and finally seduce you to go to the beloved place...
but perhaps the whole procedure is absolutely bare of romance...I sell yours, you sell mine... do they Eiffel Towers in Rome, by the way?
LOL I think in the same way of Ciel!;)
I would like to try that pizza!

They may be devoid of charm and class, but I still find it interesting how icons can flood the market...and people continue to buy them!
Now you've made me want to check the pizza places here for the leaning tower.
I suspect this post is somewhat slanted.
Hopefully, they are all made in Italy and not some Asian country.
@B Squared - I won't comment on the pizza (which I sure hope is made right there) or the carousel, but the little resin repros are DEFINTELY made in China. I may even know the factory! :-)
@VP - do I detect the slightest hint of... well... snobbery? :-D :-D
So funny! You got my morning started well! I like to laugh in the morning hours. Those darn Pisans! They're everywhere and won't leave well-enough alone!
Too funny!! Like Jacob I like to start the day with a chuckle. Darn Pisans. LOL MB
Darn those Pisans! Livornans should start a campaign to get their symbols on napkins and such.
You can become the next symbol of Italy!
We can see how fond you are of the Pisans, haha. But I like the pizza boxes :D
VP this is such a great post! I am still laughing.
Small Colosseums in a basket! That's cool!
What's Nutella doing in a pizza shop? :-)))
Pizza is popular here too. See todays posting.
A real Italian handmade pizza would have been nice....just now. Anyway, enjoy your weekend!
