We walked 10.25 miles from Pavia to Belgioioso. They say pav-EE-a rather than PAV-ee-a as we had been saying. (Written Italian, unlike Spanish, does not consistently indicate which syllables are stressed.)
The walk reminded us of the Camino in Spain, going through fields and small villages. The villages are in some disrepair but not quite as much as in Spain.
We walked mostly on pavement, small roads with little traffic. Pretty fields, lots of new grass and spring flowers. Today’s walk was quite flat. We are building up for mountains a few days from now.
We were excited when we saw our first Via arrow. The arrows on the Via are green, versus yellow on the Camino.
The WiFi non funziona in our hotel tonight so we can’t upload any photos that we took today. Will add photos when we can.
