Day 10 - Alife (23 kms)

Not much happening on this stage other than the path hit the busy road again for 30 mins. Not much fun there. Alife is ok, met an English guy (and Polish girlfriend) whose parents were Italian. They were off to visit his father’s home place. If it is still there. 


Weather didn’t augur well this morning but no rain.

If you fall or slip going up, no big deal usually, but if you fall going down, you can do some serious damage to yourself. Especially with a pack. You really need a stick. And despite lots of trees around all the loose stuff was damp. Anyway I did get down safety but it was no fun. Massive concentration and promises to God etc. I meant it at the time.
