Sicily 2017 – Sue V – Richmond

November 15, 2017

Sicily – conquered by Greeks, Romans, Arabs, French, Germans, Spanish and finally the Northern Italians. Beautiful and diverse and unique. Where else can you see Ancient Greek ruins, Norman castles, Byzantine mosaics, Baroque and Gothic Architecture (the Renaissance passed them by) and the most dramatic religious statuary? Where else can you eat dinner at a two Michelin star restaurant that happens to be in a cave? or visit Corleone (yes, it is a real place) – the birth place of the Cosa Nostra? or stand on the side of Mt. Etna and eat the grapes that make the wonderful wine that you then get to go into a 400 year old villa and drink? Just the highlights of a great trip with great friends!
