B&B Oltrepo






Nice walking today on soft dusty trail and narrow forrest  donkey.trails.

 left B&B about 9:30

But still did not arrive at destination till 2ish 


Genoa to Rome train

 Early breakfast 7am arrived station early 

Platform 9 for Roma

Good news for anyone who has struggled to find coins for Loo

Station Toilette  now takes cards

Maybe Rome Termini will also 





Genoa streets much busier today, back to work I guess.


All went smoothly train arrived at  9am on platform 9.

5 hour trip 2nd class ticket  , no coffee options etc; nada.niente.

It was a shock to arrive at Roma Termini jerds of people , rushing and rolling suitcases everywhere.


Caught Metro to near my hotel.missed stop

Had to buy another ticket to go back 1.stop


I am a day earlier in Rome went to my hotel for tomorrow. But they were fully booked.

At Hotel around the corner it is really nice

So allez gut


Went shopping for new clothes put on and went to roof top  Terrace bar .




So many snacks came with drink I do not.need dinner.

Going to my room now

It was a strong campari









Genoa leisure day

 Decided to stay in Geonoa another day . Booked different hotel not far from current hotel, 

NH Genoa Centro

Great location 


Went across road to Bignoli station and purchased ticket for 9am train, for tomorrow morning  which arrives Roma 3ish.

51euro

Yesterday Genoa felt frantic, but today I am chilled and so is Genoa.

 Today May 1st is a public holiday to celebrate labour day.


Just did a bit of shopping , underwear and scissors, not many shops open its a Public Holiday as well as Sunday.






Can shop up.in Rome


Checked into hotel 1:30ish like to this hotel  better than than other one and it is 50 euro cheaper, probably because I booked same day as stay

NH Centro Geonoa.

Did some washing and watched TV.

Later took another walk to stazione to try and remember way. In an unfamiliar area I am  am hopeless with directions .

Bought some Foccacia , choc biscuits and an ichnusso beer for dinner tonight.

Have a plush room , and big TV to enjoy my dinner.

A più tardi
