Left Equi Terme this morning and soon got held up by works trying to stop road closures by landslides - seems climate change is playing havoc with the infrastructure around these parts.

Headed south east through the mountains - saw many hilltop villages like this.

Waiting for a train near Lucca.

We've found a nice car park for tonight on the edge of the town of Montecatini Terme north west of Florence. Near by is this impressive itinerants' settlement.

The town is nothing to write home about but we did find this piece of public art - what is the child doing with that bird?
