Moving Day … With A Detour to Pieve

After a 10-night stay in Colle Santa Lucia (actually, in the hamlet of Villagrande), today was moving day for us. Raffaella, our host, came to see us off … asking if we could take a selfie together before we left. We were off around 10:00a … after bidding “a s’odëi” (= see you later … in Ladin).

With check-in at our new place set for 3:00p, our plan was to take a roundabout route to Colfosco … in the central region of the Dolomiti. To that end, we decided to try going to one of the places we were hoping to visit yesterday … Plan A. Alas, that did not prove possible. Hope springs eternal, however, so we’ll try again if we can fit it in.

Thus, we jiggled our plans, deciding to try an alternate route to another place we had hoped to visit yesterday … Plan B. No problem getting to Pieve, the main town in the commune of Livinallongo del Col di Lana. We even found parking … with a view no less. But the museum that we wanted to check out was not scheduled to open until 2:30p.

We debated wandering around for a while to kill time, have lunch, and then go to the museum. It didn’t take long, however, to realize that there wasn’t enough to keep us occupied until 2:30p. Instead, we settled on just doing a wander around Pieve and then continued on to our new digs.Read more
