I am really lucky I have good knees. Hopefully, they will stay that way!

I love reading about your hikes! One of my favourite activities too.

I think I just screwed up drawing the route and wasn’t paying close enough attention to it. With all the walking Rachael does, one error we’re prone to is to drawing a cycling route with the walking mode on because it wasn’t reset. This would be a fine shortcut on foot.

Some of us are just envious of your intact knees. I walk a lot, but not as much as you.

This is why I like just having my route as a line on the map with no navigation. I try to catch these things when I'm reviewing my routes but I often miss them.

Jacinto isn't easy to impress, but he does like your large daily distances when walking! Do what brings you joy.

So fortunate that you are such an enthusiastic walker! Hope your breathing problems clear up when the weather is better.

I wonder why that arch in the foreground is so irregular and asymmetric...

Interestingly whimsical columns, in an almost modern way but I bet they aren't all that new.

And judging by recent events you should *never* be entrusted with the key...

It looks like a painting!

We liked Ferrara too and like you we rode the flat terrain from Comacchio to Ferrara. We, being my sister and I in 2016.

Ride with GPS had us on a power line the other day for about 500m. We stayed in the road no traffic anyway. The other route the grass was thigh high!

I was wondering about the Giro this morning. We have the luxury of short days and aiming for the best window. They must be having some brutal days.

I was really pleased for the chance to see this in a better light this morning.
