372 kms to Rome
23.6 kms today
171.3 kms walked so far.
We left at about 8 on a day with no bars for 20kms and a maximum of 32.
The rolling hills of Tuscany are very beautiful, when you aren't overheated and trudging uphill.
It is all about shade. You cross cross roads to be in shade. We picnic'd next to a dam under the only shade for miles (sorry kilometres*1.6) and listened to the chorus of green frogs.
The last 6 kms to Gambassi Terme are up hill. At -4 we drank our last water.
At -3 the Pizza Restaurant was "closed on Mondays"
At -2 we sat in the shade of a telegraph pole for a breather
At - 1 the petrol station was unstaffed, self service at the bouser with a credit card for fuel only.
100 metres before our B&B we found a bar. Two litres of water, two magnums and 45 minutes later we set off for our B&B
