Scott Anderson commented on a photo in Day 48 - Venosa to Gravina in Puglia

Oh, fine. So now we have to plan another tour up your way, I suppose. I love country like this, but we didn’t make it quite that far east last time.

no yeehaw'ing horse riding cowboys, just the constant swish of the mills! You said it was windy, so assume they were turning.

We had a similar problem finding a restaurant on our trip last fall in France. I’m glad you found food.

What a shame. Venosa has at least one really nice restaurant, if you arrive on the right day.

You’re right about this country - it really feels other world is compared to the north. Basilicata and Calabria still both feel so remote, so untouched by the modern age. I’m anxious to see tomorrow’s post to see which way you continue south.

You definitely aren’t whiners. I should know since I’m the queen of whiners! After 31 years of bicycle touring with lots of foul weather, dogs and mishaps, I now want it all to be great. We sure have been lucky on weather.

Hi Rachel,
I hope the post didn't come across as whining ... both K and I really enjoyed the day. It would have been different if K had been hurt or we had been separated for hours, but as it was, all the things that happened during the day are the sort of things that can and do happen on a tour, as I'm sure you are aware.
We will enjoy the food in Puglia ... just finding out more about Venosa (where we are tonight) and it is supposed to be well know for wine (Aglianico del Vulture DOC) ... but its Monday so finding a place that's open where can get some might be a challenge!

Sorry for all your problems today. I hope the weather is good for you in Puglia. Puglia is great and it has wonderful food.

No fun getting chased by dogs especially when you’re climbing! Hope you have a better ride tomorrow.

You’re right! We did do better with the time change. All Rachael’s doing. On my own, I’d have been surprised too.

We’re enjoying following along here, and are considering coming this way ourselves late next fall. It looks like a beautiful time to be here.
