Italy - Day 12: A short hiking day, new shoes and ghe first strawverries

The sunset last night was indeed incredible and it was funny to watch the town lighting up at night.

This morning wasn't as wet as I had been afraid of. And I continued my steep descend into the town of Serino, where I washed my socks and filled up on water again.

The day was a mixture of roadwalk and paths, mostly along chestnut plantations or gardens. And I discovered, how load towns are. There are dogs, cars, lawn mowers,... I was happy about the quiet parts on paths, even though it meant some ups and downs.

After Contrada, I walked up several hundred meters to the Chapel on Monte Faliesi, but the path was very nice, so no complains.

After I descended, it was shopping time: First lots of food (actually too much...), then new shoes. I also needed a new SD card, but didn't see a shop selling those. It was anyways a bit weird, cause I wasn't really "in town" but more on the outskirts with a big Cinemacomplex, McD, KFC etc. close to the motorway. But I will pass some bigger towns the best days, so I should be able to get a new SD cars there.

I got water at a petrol station and then walked up only a little bit further before I hid in an overgrown chestnut plantations for the night. There I found the first straweberries of the season :)

That's the goal of the day - although not to the top

That's the goal of tomorrow!

Yummy!
