On the way to Gambassi Terme, Italy ... Via Francigena

Today was a pleasant walk with many hills ... vineyards, olive trees, green grass. Also, there are other people out here on the path now. Most of them started in Lucca.

It looks wonderful. I will ”follow” you to Rome. I am planning to walk from Lucca in April, just after Easter next year.

By the time I get there in October, I’m guessing this will all be “golden” — I’m from California where we prefer not to say “brown.”

I just saw The Journey by Andrea Bocelli — he’s riding horseback the 200 miles on the Via Francigena… they see a lady on the trail and as “Are you a Pilgrim?…. And she shouts back… Yes… I am!”…. It’s a beautiful environment-enjoy!

Ohhh.. I’ll be in Lucca in October…I hasn’t even thought of that route. I’ll fly to Spain and do the Camino to Santiago. Next year is a Holy Year- correct?
