Passo del Termini to Colfiorito
Distance: 20km
Rarely have I sleep so well in my tent. 1 only wake up once and therefore hit the trail well rested. It's a straightforward walk today. Not too many vertical meters and mostly along roads.
I am taking it slow, timing my arrival time in Colfiorito at 10:30 - the check-in time at the hotel. After some long, physically and mentally challenging days, I decided to treat myself with a hotel. To relax a bit, collecting my thoughts. And of course: take a shower. I'm not too picky when it comes to not washing myself for a couple of days but after 7 days in the heat, sweating like a bull and without any lake or river to wash myself in, I'm in desperate need of a shower.
Besides the mentioned things, I will resupply and plan my next couple of days (the Abruzzo mountains still look like off limits to me because of the snow). Also the weather is worrying me a bit as daily afternoon thunderstorms will make my trail life a bit harder.
Other than that, there's really not much to here in Colfiorito other than just Dolce far niente without feeling guilty of missing out on something.

Nice to shout yourself a bit of luxury. Your body must've almost gone into shock. A wonderful feeling afterwards though. And to smell human again. Mind you, if it's any consolation out there, predators wouldn't have got a whiff of you. Your fodder looked yum!
Lovely photos. I don't expect anything less �

Good to see you're taking it easy. The road surface looked suspiciously like one of ours! The pizza and dessert are yummy. Enjoy
