Today was our transition from cycling to hiking and we were a little sad to leave our bike temporarily behind. This a.m, we separated what we needed for the next small portion of our trip. This is when we get to unzip our converitble front panniers in order to be able to use them as backpacks.
In the afternoon, we rode our bike with only the rear panniers on through town again, with the usual chaos, expect this time we knew the way (including where we could steal against traffice on a one way street). We hauled our rear panniers and bike up to the 2nd floor apt. of our Servas host, where she would kep our bike on her balcony, and our bags in her office. We sat and talked with her and her friend for awhile and Mauny got a lot of giggles helping the girls compose a letter to a man they had met at an Israeli-Palenstinian peace conference, while Elaine copied Servas addresses for Rome from her book (Elaine did not bring these on the trip, and now we both think perhaps visiting Rome could be nice, as Mauny recommends). We left shortly after dark and made our way back via bus to our last night at the Michael Angelo campground.
