Followed by a nice breakfast for a leisurely day - I knew that I wasn't intending to walk too far today, and so didn't rush...
I still set off around 9 am, dropping down to cross the river, and send my way up and through many remote villages, with their narrow passageways and roads... and often alongside the Autostrada (motorway)
Firstly through Arnaud, and then into Hone... It was a lovely blue sky, lots of people were out and about after yesterday's rain, all of whom seemed to want to say Buongiorno!! To a humble Perregrino!!
I had a late morning snack in the backstreets of Hone,
then continued into Donnas and the start of some well preserved Roman features, buildings and memories
this was known as ' the way of the Gauls', and I could feel myself walking along historic roads and paths, with great castles above me
The Roman road, consisting of close set pebbles, then the road was hewn out of the rocks, with great slabs of rock to walk along, and archways to go through
I arrived in Pont St Martin just before 130 for a relaxed afternoon looking around the old Roman bridge, church and town
I've now moved into my seventh week of walking on this pilgrimage... Over 1,000 kms walked, and over 1,500,000 steps!!... And I've lost count of the many prayers and good wishes sent - Thanks everyone!!
Keep them up, and I'll continue to remember you all!!
Once again thanks to my web editor - Wayne who publishes my blog for me... And everyone!!
