The Ancona Farmer’s Market is open every day from 7:30-12:30. It’s in a rustic building with beautiful produce from nearby farms and fish from the sea. We’ve read that it’s going to be renovated soon!
There were end of the season roses:
And a bouquet of yellow flowers that remind us that it’s fall!
Today we both got our hair cut at Salone Parigi! We took a chance that we could walk-in without an appointment. Dear Luciano was a very kind man and he took his time with both of our cuts! He didn’t speak much English but we cobbled together enough phrases to make it all work out! He told us about his children and his travels. His shop was cozy and comfortable with lots of magazines and a bowl of candies to keep us occupied while we waited. It was such a nice experience. And we each got a great haircut! The cost for two very careful haircuts was €58.
Later we walked along the port where the ferries and cruise ships are docked. We saw Ancona’s Trajan Arch from another angle and had a view of Cattedrale San Ciraco in the distance…up on the hill that we climbed yesterday.
We think that we’ve made most of our time in Ancona. It’s worth a short visit! Tomorrow we’ll take the train to Orvieto…a town that we’ve enjoyed visiting in the past. We’re hoping that truffles are in season!
