March 12, 2023,Si- Santa Tecla nach Riposto

I moved like a snail today – I caught a terrible cold in Berlin last week.
It was all the nicer to cycle through the lemon groves, olive tree cultivation could also be seen and other plants that are intended for sale. Riposto is a beautiful town, albeit deserted on a Sunday afternoon. Nice and relaxed tour!
