Another day with LOTS of walking. Went to the Vatican around 10am by subway, which was quick. Only waited in line for 45 mins. Walked around the museum for an hour then the Sistine Chapel and finally St. Peters. All quite ornate and clearly a tour de force of talent, but I must say that all that stuff seems a bit overdone to me (the exception being Michelangelo's amazing Pieta).

Later we had a terrific dinner at Perilli's near the Piramide; also enjoyed a very entertaining waiter. Just prior to that we picked up picnic stuff at a remarkable specialty grocery (also with a charming employee). A thunderstorm shook the restaurant while we dined, but was over by the time we went home.

Thesaurus, pushups, plank.

Nice easy run through the streets of Venice, navigating with Rhondas orienteering map, which was really fun. Along the south shore almost to the forested park; took a more northerly (and more direct) route back.

Salzburg. Not much time, so just jogged a little in the streets near the hotel, mostly on a grass strip I found on a small hill.

Got dressed for dinner, then walked up to the fortress, which was a definite work out for my legs, since I hadnt had time to stretch after my brief jog.
