Very strange little town on the top of a.., well it's in between a hill and a small mountain. Not easy to walk up without a lot of effort, but not quite as impressive as say a ride up to Pikes Peak in Colorado. The town is called Bussana Vecchia and is literally a place taken over by artists, and only artists, after a quake destroyed it in the 18 hundreds. It is located outside of San Remo, and is absolutely a must see as the artists moved into he rubble and did what artists normally do, made it quirky and eccentric! Even this cat looks cool and artistic, laying there, not a care, sleeping all wrapped up in that fishing net. Anyway, I always think of places in terms of if I could actually live there, and I could, I have no problem imagining my art gallery set up in this charming little place, but...
Well the earthquake ruins makes me feel like the ground is going to move again.., probably right after I set up my little art gallery..
