Having taken the bus last night back to our Servas host home, we were able to figure out how to walk into town today. A breeze...We visited the big fort (not mentioned in the tour books) and the market around it (Wednesday is market day all over Sienna). The weather was gorgeous. Went to an internet cafe and to see a recommended church only to find it now converted to a university. The view of the city was nice. We went back to Il Campo, picked up some gelato and laid down on it, like many other toursits, soaking in the Tuscan sun. We watched a mime entertain those at Il Campo and photographed many, many people eating gelatos.
We returned to our Servas host home and Mauny worked on the bike, changing the brake pads, worn out b all our steep descents we have done the last 800k. He tuned up the bike as well. This is the 2nd set of brakes changes on this trip. We made dinner in our room and went to bed.

Hi Guys,
I thought I posted something but it did not work. Just checking your adventures now. It is not that we have not thought of you and how you were doing, just been very busy and not use to blogging to be honest.
Your adventures are fascinating and arduous. I love the way you are getting to experience the country and the people in a slow motion and close-up way.
I am envious of something I do not think I could do.
We look forward to a full blown slide show when you return.
Arianna is very very close to birthing so that is exciting,
All the best and stay safe.
Love Stephen and Natalie
