Walking under rain and snow

Hello everyone !

Yesterday was quite an awesome evening ! Although it only was Wednesday, I went to bed at almost 5am (things that I obviously don't usually do). This happened because, every week, there's an event in Perugia, at the 110 café, which is the central café for the biggest part of the universities here. It is called the ''Wednesday Rock'' and half of the evening there's a band playing on the main stage, followed by the DJ set with different kind of music. I went there for the first time, and I can't wait for next week to be back again !

Anyway, today I want to share with you some pictures I took last Saturday and Sunday. Differently from my average weekend routine, on the 31st I left at 3pm with my scout group, and we went by train to Spoleto, a city in my region, not too far from where I live but that I've never really visited. When I was a gymnast I used to have a couple of competitions every year in the local sports hall, but that was it. Half day in the gym and than back to Assisi. 
When we arrived it immediately started raining. Covering ourselves and our backpacks as much as we could, we started walking on the Spoleto - Norcia. It's a really nice path because it is an old railroad who connected the two cities above. I had the occasion to walk half of it a couple of time, but on Saturday we decided to leave the path because we thought it was time to, in order to change path and take the one that was going to lead us to Campello, the small and lovely city where we already called and ''booked'' a room. When I say a room, a literally mean a room, not a proper bedroom. We only need a roof and, if it's possible, something that will warm us up during winter time. 

Truth is that we didn't have to leave the Spoleto-Norcia railroad, or at least not on the point in which we did. At 6.30pm was still raining, was dark and we arrived in Eggi (another lovely small village). We luckily found another room there and we decided to have dinner and sleep there, and to arrive in Campello the day after, although this meant that we were going to do +7km the day after. And so we did, waking up at 5.30am.

On sunday morning it was raining again, but around 8am it started snowing. Although to walk with snow it's quite complex and it's colder...it was totally worth it. 
We arrived in Campello, had lunch and the possibility to dry our clothes and warm up a little bit. Than we left again and walked without pause, and at 7pm we reached Trevi, our final destination.

Sorry for the poor quality of the picture, but I forgot my Canon at home, so I could only use my phone to take. pictures. Hope you liked this blog post and, for those of you who like walking and who may have the possibility to come around my area, I highly recommend you the ''Sentiero degli Ulivi'' (The path of olives - literally) and the Spoleto-Norcia old railroad. Have a nice weekend !
