Apricale - the Old Dog


We're in the medieval hill village of Apricale. See yesterday's post for a long shot of the village showing the houses as they seems to tumble down the hillside.

I wonder many dogs have walked these same cobblestones over the centuries?

(Click on the link to see more of this dog on Riviera Dogs today.)

Oh, to live in such a place and know all the pets by name. Quelle rêve.

I often wonder the same! He's edging his way down every so carefully over the cobblestones like I do, when they're wet anyway.

A wonderful image, Jilly. Love the composition and balance of this.

a beautiful image, a bit sad but full of mood and character! Impeccable framing.

We would call that a "hang dog" look! What a lovely place. I would love to visit although I don't think I would be able to leave!

Yes, Virginia, me too. Now we know why Jilly stayed when she got to Menton. I think I'd stop in Apricale and never go. (I say that about Menton, too.)

I strongly recommend your visitors click on the link you provide to "Riviera Dogs" - they will get a chance to see you in ambush ready to take a picture of that dog. I think it's so funny, I really like it!

Love the composition of this picture. Enlarged, I think it would make a great picture to hang on a wall.

Blogspot has lost my previous comment. I wrote something like : an old dogs who knows certainly better than the inhabitants of Apricale each cobblestone, each hiding places, each corners of the old town, I guess.
