Arrivederci al Prossimo Viaggio
We were up by 8, finished packing, had breakfast on our balcony, then said good-bye to Diana and her B&B. We managed the ten minute trudge to the ferry stop (my luggage wheels really don't have much left in them!) and we were on the hydrofoil ferry at 9:15. We found the bus stop for the Milazzo train station, and made some friends on the bus … a mother and daughter from Holland, and a couple from Australia who we recognized from ...
Hanging with the Mafia!

As challenging as negotiating Palermo traffic is in daylight, it’s even more so when in the dark. I must admit, I’m beginning to enjoy the challenge. Go ahead. Try and cut me off. I dare ...
Palermo and Monreale
... Piazza Verdi dominated by the Teatro Massimo, Palermo's premiere opera venue, though the allure is somewhat diminished by the stench of drains surrounding the tacky souvenir tables.
