Because of Corona

Stage 44: Ponte a Rigo to Bolsena (33.01 km)

Nice resting place right next to by place for the night. A shop would have been even nicer...

So it is mostly flatt hiking on empty roads. It is Sunday after all.

Passing from Tuscany over to the Lazio reagion; on to the final stretch.

A modern take on a resting place for pilgrims (no joke) ...

I can see lake Bolsena from a distance...

 

shortly before I meet the first pilgrims on this trip. First a women from Switzerland, then we pick up an older Gentlemen from Strasbourg. Later I pass an other couple but talking to two persons is enough for one day.  

I spent most of the evening at a totally crowded gas-station become disco/bar/place-to-be where about half of the town are hanging out, getting rapidly drunk while singing along to everything from 80s Italo-pop to Metallica and (I kid you not!) Nina Hagen. The funniest night on the whole trip! The lady selling the drinks has a very solid explanation for the whole thing: "Please excuse us. Everyone here has become crazy. Because of Corona."
