Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened. ~ Dr. Seuss
Today we went the office of the “Opera Romana Pellegrinaggi” in St. Peter’s Square for our Testimoniums (certificate for completing at least the last 100km of the Via). The pilgrims who started Canterbury get the same document.
It’s just like the Camino de Santiago. Walking the last 100km (62 miles) gets you a Compostela.
Chappy, Bill and I weighed ourselves. Bill was the winner at losing the most.
Bill and I hoofed it to our new luxurious hotel where we will veg for the next three nights. Soft sheets, a bathtub and a huge TV with English channels. Not sure if we’ll get out of bed tomorrow.
Chappy, Darrell and Roxanne stopped by to check out our new digs and we all walked to see the Trevi Fountain (along with 1,000,000 other people) to hug it out and say goodbye.
Chappy is heading home tomorrow and Darrell and Roxanne are off to discover Italy by train.
