Coasting into Assisi

May 21, 2024

We took off this morning at 8:30 as the most recent of a night long series of thunderstorms played itself out. Four took the train, four walked. We were in full rain gear at first, but there was never significant rain after that.

We were not on the published trail, we followed a google map walking directions route. It was still 24 km but only 650 meters of climbing and was all on paved or good surfaces. The other route would have had dirt paths, no fun after a big rain.

Assisi is busy. Many large religious groups wander the streets to the historic places.

Walking to dinner
Gnocchi (14 euros)

Very nice Sangiovese (19 euros)

Sunset on the Piazza

Gelato, then walked back to our rooms for sleep. 9 pm is lights out for walkers

I misspoke earlier; my friend Kenton left because of his knees. I am fine.
