Pieve di Teco

This day I went for a Sunday outing to Pieve di Teco in the hopes of seeing the antique market.  We drove there at first via the coast through Imperia and up the valley. 

Unfortunately it was the wrong Sunday but still there were a few antique dealers opening their shops. So each of us a got something and we also enjoyed ourselves with coffee and a sweet bread. I also bought myself an old floozy magazine (see below in pics) from 1965 that I put under my coffee table. 

Pieve di Teco was in her heyday famous for making shoes and indeed there still were shops selling hiking boots but they were not made there. Only local services was shoe repairs. 

Walking off the main street to the back of Pieve di Teco along the river showed some quaint buildings in the same style of the area. Then we returned over the  mountain and via Carpasio, very good views along the way.
