Days 78-79 Radicofani to Bolsena:
In this stretch we left Toscana for Lazio.
Still enjoying all these quiet towns off the tourist radar.
And getting so close to Rome and the end of our pilgrimage.
Trying to enjoy this last week as the world seems to be spinning deeper into Covid fear!
Walking around Lake Bolsena we enjoyed beautiful views of the Lake.
The parish hostel was closed as we sat outside it and several locals came up and offered to help. Soon the cery sweet and accommodating Catarina came up and opened Santa Cristina Ostello and set is up with a private bedroom.
We ran into our friend Nicola near the Cathedral and had a drink with him.
I also bumped into a nun literally and asked her if she was from Uganda which she was. We had a nice chat about her beautiful home country.
Came to a house where Galileo stayed 400 years ago.
Continued beautiful nature today.
