Our accommodation this evening is a small B&B run by the accommodating Manuela.
We start the climb over the Appenines, the mountain range that bisects the Italian Peninsula form the Ligurian sea to its southern tip. This first leg takes us only to 1650 ft but as we leave the flat plain behind we can feel the cooler air as it sweeps down from the surrounding hills. The afternoon rain does not bother us
For dinner we are joined by a couple from Milan, he the head of the AI lab at the Milan Polytechnic, she a biomedical professor at the same institution. We got to discussing AI. His take is that AI will make it harder to know the truth. After 3000 years we are back to the fundamental epistemological question . Somehow that is comforting
Tomorrow onto Cassio. No photos tonight, signal too weak
Walking the Via Francigena 
Glad you are heading into cooler territory 🙂

Where’s Plato’s Cave when you really need it? It used to be that truth would set you free; now we need to set the truth free! May your climb be up-lifting.
