Day 17 Bolsena to Montefiascone ( Pride cometh before.....)

146 kms to Rome
17.6 walked today
368.5 walked so far

Today was an easy day
17.6 Kms along the lake
Gentle up (600 m total)

Now reality and pride bites
It would be hubris to call it hubris
Nothing that grand 
My feet hurt. I now have  2 more blisters.
Today I had no energy.

Tomorrow  I will drop to 1.5 litres and no fruit ( saving 2 kg). We are leaving 45 min earlier and Clare is redoing all my bandages. I love her soft expert touch.
Tomorrow will be fine.

Back to today



Our hotel was rather nice and right on the lake. The photo was breakfast. Dinner was even quieter. 😀
The walk to Montefiascone varied from farmland to escarpment to woodland paths. Very nice, and 18 Kms was just the ticket for a broken down old thing (myself not Clare).


Must be mad
Still smiling
