Siracusa, Sicily

17 Apr

Fossilized seashell found on cliff above Ionian Sea.

I am writing for the first time from Sicily where we are staying in the city of Siracusa for the next three months. Dana and I want to write and send photos of our life here more than the sites we go to see.

Yesterday we were grocery shopping and wanted to show you the pasta aisle in Sidis the local supermarket. Pasta Video is HERE.

Sicilians return home every day between 1 and 4 P.M. to have lunch and rest. Lunch is usually pasta or homemade pizza or both. There are pizzerias everywhere…little shops that sell pizza by the slice and wrap it nicely for you to take home to eat.  You do not see Sicilians, even younger people, eating on the street, ever.
