Day 177: Zero Day 1 Pontremoli

Seven sharp the bus emerges from the mist. Somehow I doubted it would but luckily I was wrong.


I'm the only passenger all the way to Pontremoli, a lovely medieval village.

As it is pouring I head straight for a cafe. Then at 10:00 I am able to check into my airbnb room, which has everything I need. Internet, plenty of power outlets and a bed.


The rest of the day: sightseeing, resupplying and eating. It continues to bucketting down with the occasional thunder in between. I feel relieved not being up in the mountains. Tomorrow, on my second zero day, I'll head to Riomaggiore in Cinque Terre for a day trip before resuming the trail on Saturday.

    Yes, weather looks bad.
    But the village is very lovely.
