Our last hiking day!

We thoroughly enjoyed the Ai Pini B&B and the sweet family that ran it.  As we left town we stopped in at a small grocery store to get snacks for lunch.  We quickly became the people of interest when the local ladies in the store found out what we were doing.  They were very excited and supportive of our adventure.

We walked through beautiful wine country for about an hour before it began to rain heavily.  We came across a friendly, very wet donkey and a flock of geese who walked along with us.

Eventually the rain gave way to sunshine!

As we approached Susagana we could look back and see Col Visentin, a sight that we discovered we could even see in Venice!  A very prominent building in the area was the Castello di S. Salvatore.
