Day 75: An exchange of views

Sunrise revealed yet another spectacular view from our bedroom window – a neighbouring ridge-top village bathed in warm light streaming through a gap in the hills. I rushed out to find a better vantage point and then spent ages snapped away like crazy, trying to find a way to adequately capture what I was seeing. 






After breakfast, we drove to the little riverside spa-town of Bagni di Lucca, which has been known for its thermal springs since the 10th century and once entertained the court of Napoleon. All of which suggests something rather grander than the quiet, unassuming little town we came across. The woman in the tourist office suggested that we walk along the river to the next village along, which we duly did. It was all rather pleasant, but not much more. 




The house in Limano doesn't have wi fi and we don't yet have anywhere booked for our next stop – nor actually any real idea of where that stop might be – so we stopped in a cafe with wi fi and tried to choose somewhere (without success, but at least the options are narrowing).

After lunch back at the house, Sarah and I wandered around the village, checking out some more viewpoints as the sun went down.
