I think we might actually make it to Rome. The signs are certainly indicating that we are going the right way. Perhaps the oldest surviving road sign, however is the on on the Cathedral in Fidenza. A statue of Simon Peter faces Rome holding an inscription that says, “Here lies the way to Rome.”
We are staying at the Cappuccini Monastery in Fidenza, each of us with our own separate cell. We are the only pilgrims here right now but there were 7 the previous night.
Ice cream flavors today: rocky road, coffee and cream, sunflower, and two other lovely mysteries.
