We woke up this morning hearing sheep bells in a Swiss mountain village and by sunset we were at Lido di Jesolo on the Adriatic near Venice, so we covered some ground. Along the way Verona was delightful and not too warm. The REI pants continue to impress. I’ll definitely pick up some more. I’m just washing a couple a shirt and undies tonight. Tomorrow will be 9 hours in Venice. Don’t think this one-bag thing is saving my back: tonight I lugged a bunch of 40 pound cases up four flights of stairs for some of our tour participants - chivalry is not dead!
