Day 6
Our hotel was near an excellent pastry shop that we visited 5 times in 2 days. I was really impressed with the crepes and pastries and Nutella creations at cheap prices in Italy.

Baby angels – woe is me! I loved reading about your incredible adventure in Italy. You would be an amazing tour guide since you know more facts and figures that the locals. I doubt we could have kept up with 9 walking miles a day, but we’re enjoying the daily accounts. Can’t wait to hear about it in person.
