November 10th - 19th
This is one of a number of beautiful crater lakes in this area. We camped beside it and in the morning the sun rose opposite the tent:
A few days later were in Rieti to collect a parcel of winter clothing from a TNT office there (thanks Dr Watson!). The TNT people were very friendly and said we were the first cyclists to have collected a parcel. Our only problem was how to fit it all on the bikes!

Near the village of San Biagio we passed the 4000km (2,500 miles) mark. We stopped to make some celebratory pancakes but the skies opened and rather dampened our celebration!
