During the next 7 days after we finished hiking, we stayed in the Bolzano, Italy, the region of Südtirol, and did a plethora of things, one of which was me getting tired of blogging. It takes time, thought, photos, thumb typing, voice to text (w/ wifi), editing, creative juices, an Internet connection, and uploading time. Basically, it's a lot of work. So this blog is about to get really LAZY. I'll group them together. Or something. I have creative control, so... I can pretty much do whatever I want. Including bad grammar and speling. Sloppy blogging...
Rest Day 1: Monday

- we slept in and ate breakfast
- moved to another bed and breakfast in Callalbo-- a short train ride away

What an adventure! Thanks for doing so much blogging. It really helped those of us who wish we could have seen what you saw--without the agony of how you got there! Bravo, brave men! You have achieved quite a rare status! I love you.
