Day 27,28 - Lecce (22 kms), Martano (28 kms)

Walk was fine both days.  Felt like I was in Connemara some of the time on route to Martano

They say Lecce is the ‘Florence of the South’ and very hard to argue with that. Very nice spot, especially if you are a foodie. The Duomo, one of many churches and a familiar sight on the VF. Three days to go…

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.

That would also be tricky to explain.  I could shrug a lot I suppose. But if I was on the phone. “I think I have found a body. Yes, he looks dead. I think it’s me.”
