Out the door early knowing today's long walk would be hot and hilly.
By the time I got out of Camaiore the sun was already above the surrounding mountains and starting to get hot.
The first 5 miles were gradual uphill then mile 6 was straight uphill.
Once I crested the tops of two climbs I met 6 Australian hikers going in the opposite direction to Canterbury.
Later in the afternoon I finally made it to the ancient walled city of Lucca, where I will enjoy a much needed and earned scheduled rest day.
