London
Have had 3 busy days in the city and a lovely day in Norfolk. There
has been a heatwave but cooler again today. We are off through the
countryside today to see more of England. Have loved staying at
Captain Blighs house. The GPS has been great so far- good practise for
France!

Riviera
Have really enjoyed Monaco and Nice but then it's all been great.
Awesome weather and not as touristy as Italy. A rest from the hawkers
as well. Spent some time in medieval villages and at a perfume factory
too. Off to Lyon thru the countryside today.

Going North
We were sad to leave Sorrento as it is a fabulous spot above the Bay
of Naples. Visited Pompeii which was really interesting and sobering.
Had a good look around Assisi yesterday and a run this morning.
Awesome Basilica and a lovely quiet town. Moving on to Firenze today -
back to the crowds.

Roman holiday
Very busy 2 days in Rome cos there are so many ancient things to see.
We didn't have nearly as much free time as expected as the Pope was
inconveniently still in town. As it was a Wednesday there was mass in
St Peters square so we got to see the Pope and his popemobile. It was
great. Very hot tho. Thankfully we had an umbrella. Loved St Peters,
Colosseum, Pantheon, etc etc.
