Day 31: Vicenza, Italy

Stats... 90.78km in 4hrs 54mins. We woke up bright and early to a swarm of mossies munching on our legs! We got on the road and out of there as quickly as possible. We followed a fast road East to Verona which is one of Italys prettiest cities that has an ampitheatre and is associated with Romeo and Juliet. We stopped for an ice cream and continued into a head wind for a while then had another quick stop in a petrol station for a power nap. Again we headed into wind and at a set of traffic lights we chatted to a lovely couple who did not speak English but gestured us to follow them, so we did. We let them be the wind breakers and followed them into Vicenza city centre where they bought us an ice cream each in a cafe. We continued to follow them as they delivered us to our campsite which would have been a nightmare to find without them... thanks! We set up camp and visited the hotel next door to use their internet and have a beer. We got to use the internet for free in reception and chatted with some nice staff who helped us with various questions about Italy and they were very interested in our trip. The weather has been amazingly hot today so we have definately topped up our tans!
