After the exertions of yesterday, a more restful day today; the morning was taken up with laundry to last us for the coming week during our journey home ( ferry from Caen Wed 6 overnight)
I wandered around the old town area for half an hour and spotted the entrance to the uphill walk trail to Monterosso not far from the campsite .
Very taken by the beauty of Rationalist architecture of the Casino hotel restaurant on the beach, built by the mayor in 30's to attract the big wigs and starlets.
As the weather was drizzly, my toe was still bruised and painful for any uneven walking , we opted to do the off road flat cycle/ walk way from Levanto to 2 local villages , Bosonolara and Framura , Levanto had turned a disused railway into a car free cycle walk way path through many hill tunnels with occasional breaks for glimpses of rocky outlets and small coves to peer down into, a satisfying 10 k in total.
Watched the small children back in Levanto town centre dressed up in full make up ,witches, devils, imps outfits scampering between shops ,the shop keepers came outside to encourage them, a cafe had a Halloween party on tho go , filled with very excited children racing around👹👻❤️and blaring music.We retreated to the van for an evening of resting, reading and blogging and another night of clock chimes every 15 minutes on this beautiful campsite ! Tough walking from here for the very fit.
