Day 29 Ferrara

📅 Friday 8 May 2026
After our dash across northern Italy, and especially yesterday's effort, we deserve a rest day in Ferrara. It's a UNESCO World Heritage site, so as well as catching up on work we're going to explore the city a little. Mat spent most of the afternoon in the cemetery here, looking for the grave of a friend's father who is buried here. He eventually found it after a long search with the help of a super helpful cemetery worker called David, thanks David! In the evening we went out for drinkies and then a delicious pizza for dinner. It feels so Italian here, Ferrara is a very liveable city.

We had a rest day in Ferrara, which is a UNESCO site. The architecture is typical Lombardy brick. It's also as the City of Bicycles as it's flat and largely traffic free.

We went out for drinks and then to a pizzeria. Kat mistakenly ordered a pizza with anchovies but they replaced it for no extra charge.
