Day 26 Montignoso to Avenza (Carrara)

Today was a day of ups to get some awesome views of the sea and also the Carrara mountains. I passed a lot of marble works and one had a marble car. The curbs are marble and one rest stop had marble benches. The day was extended by a few kms because of a slip on the path. I would have found a way around through some grape vines but there were 2 very emphatic workers that I was not going to pass. This meant turning around and walking the bike route. it rained I the afternoon but I was inside by the time it got really heavy. There was an amazing cloud formation as the storm was developing. I waited for ages at a railway crossing. Even the car turned their motors off. My accommodation for night is an Ostello that is a little depressing. Basically it is a room with one little window and a bathroom. The room is directly off the church piazza, and it’s raining. 2 of us here tonight. She is I think she said Austrian and she was full of trying to “help” me to be flexible and change my plans.Læs mere
