Can you believe that we made it to day 200? It is hard at times for us to think that we have actually been away that long. Until we start thinking about everything we have seen. Day 100 had seemed to take forever to approach, but 200 snuck up on us. Unfortunately we didn’t do anything exciting to celebrate this momentous day. We couldn’t find any good parking in San Gimignano (closest spot we could actually fit into was 4 km away down the hill). We originally wrote off Gimignano but Shoestrings said that it was so highly visited that we should only check it out in the middle of the week in the middle of winter, which was precisely when we were here. When we determined we couldn’t park, we skipped it and made our way to the capitol of Tuscany, Siena. Parking in Siena was 25 euros so we didn’t stick around, we did however stop in a McDonalds where we had a quick bite for breakfast(chocolate filled chocolate chip muffins) and I had two Macchiato’s to drink (espresso mixed with warm milk). Since we didn’t stop here either we were well on our way to our next stop in Santa Fiora. We ended up staying here for 2 days where it was very windy and cold. We spent the two days planning the next leg of our trip south. Since the further south we go, the less camper friendly it becomes.
