Day 22 - Venice - Assisi

I get it. Leave the most beautiful place on the planet, and nothing else matters. Wrong. Travel down the highway 250km through Umbria, and stop overnight in a place called Assissi and you will know you're alive. ( Wake up stupid - Saint Francis of Assisi ) This is a town of 25000 people set on a hill side, and nothing prepares you for the intensity. The intensity of architecture, the intensity of history, the intensity of religion, the intensity of Italian food ( best so far ), the intensity of Walt Disney type hardsell. We stayed in the heart of the old town and the photos tell a story.
