Day 12 - Martone
... community in these small towns, something I think we lack in Sydney! Arriving at Martone there is a group of guys who shine laser at us as we walk around. We find the graveyard where so many of jakes relatives are buried. Inside we wander around noticing names and dates. The oldest grave was a Severino too. After a while a group of people came ino the graveyards aswell, it seemed like half the town was there. One of them spoke a little English and told the rest that jake ( jac- a-mo ...
Backstage Tour at Sea
... table mates. We were laughing and ordering many desserts last night, just like family. After dinner we all went out to the promenade together and watched as the cruise ship sailed between the narrow bit between Sicily and Italy. There was a sunset, lighthouse, Mt.

... saucissons, viandes, fromages et pantouffles! Et oui, je me suis acheté une paire de pantouffles en laine, de fabrication artisanale! Elles sont belles, hein? Tu ne trouves pas ça chez nous...Je sais qu'il y aura des jaloux! De plus, nous avons acheté un demi-poulet pour les sandwichs du midi. Après-midi, nous avons pris la route de Selva, village à l'est de Santa-Cristina. La piste sera la plus longue de notre périple. Nous avons monté pour environ 450 m ...
