Day 14: Belgioioso to Orio Litta

Wow! What a day! I'm exhausted. Thankfully, there was not as much road walking today, which was a relief. I've come to the conclusion that my replacement boots are not as cushioned as the original pair as my feet are sore every day. I set out early (just before 7 a.m.) as I had a long way to go (31.06 km). I love Italy, I'm so impressed that I could find a cafe open at 6 a.m. I even got a latte this morning. It was a cool and overcast day - perfect walking weather. It did sprinkle, on and off, so it wasn't a problem until about an hour before I got to Orio Litta when the rain would not stop. I caved about 3 km out and put on the Great Pumpkin, and I'm glad I did as the next part of the Way was tall and overgrown vegetation! At least the Great Pumpkin stopped me from getting completely soaked. I saw another coypu today and managed to get a photo. I've been trying to get a photo of the storks, but they are very elusive. Oh, and I saw another castle - I think it's privately owned!
P.S. I should have mentioned the "Mama Mia" is an actual expression here. I've heard it twice in the last few days - in connection with me being Australian!Läs mer
