Ouch! Falling sucks. I'm so sorry! It's good to hear that you are OK and that you didn't let it dampen your day. Which was amazing - that's a ton of experiences to cram into a single day.

2 years agoI was tempted to stay another day to do some hiking, but thought it might not be wise until my ankle is 100%. An excuse to come back!
2 years agoScott - Thanks for your kind comments - you'll be glad to know that my head is still working this morning.
Matera is extraordinary and I thank you for first bringing it to my attention in your 2019 journal - before all the world discovered it thanks to James Bond.
And also thanks for the route advice - I remember reading about the puddle portage. Actually I'm headed east to Trani, after spending a few more days in Murgia. I'll catch the train to Naples from Foggia on Monday. It's been a wonderful tour and I can't believe it's winding down. Next up -Burgundy!
Sorry about your head. I’m glad to hear you’re okay!
2 years agoWe did a small hike around there but I would love to go back and do more. Im glad the weather improved for you!
2 years agoGlad you're okay, Susan! Who needs a scare like that. And that meal sounded delightful, by the way.
2 years agoChallenging day but I’m so glad you made it to Matera!
2 years agoThat’s so frightening, Susan. It’s a beautifully written piece though, and evidence that your head has come through just fine. Thanks for taking us back to this unbelievable place again, and good luck with your ankle!
Also, if you’re heading to Taranto next, good luck with your routing! We had some real difficulty, but maybe you might learn something useful from our issues. Here’s our route and experience, for better and worse: https://www.cycleblaze.com/journals/palermo2019/taranto-on-to-puglia.
Yikes! Who needs a fall? We don’t bounce like we used to. I’m glad you’re all right and ready to keep on going.
The Sassi is an amazing place. Your photos are gorgeous.
To accommodate ladies’ skirts!
