Ravello - a 30 hour trip worth the exhaustion!
... see a glimpse of one along the way, it will clearly be gone going around the next turn. There is no need for the line anyway. It seems to be the norm along these roadways to just make your way along a road any way and any how you can. Forget about traffic lights, there are none! You just maneuver around other motorists going into an intersection. Everyone just seems to take turns. It's surprising there are not many car accidents here. I finally arrived in the charming little town of ...

1149. A Friendly Audience (Italy 126)
Day 063: 2 hours, 3.0 kms
Pagani is a large, fully alive town. Here I decide to check out the Nativity Scene Competition—which apparently is serious business here in this region. People compete to create the most beautiful, detailed Nativity scene, many of which are actually medieval village scenes, with scores of miniature characters, blacksmiths, tailors, ...
