Cefalu Day 1

After a restful night sleep, I got dressed to go to the store to pick up a few things. Gabe took the car and went to pick up Guy from his place in the country. We are going to all walk around town today. We saw the “Long Beach”, the Duomo where Gabe’s family were baptized and married, we got aranchini, some granita and cannoli. All started in Sicily.
After our long walk around the city, we decided it was time for an afternoon rest back at our really nice apartment. Guy came and even took a nap. Gabe drove him to a birthday party before he headed to the train station. When he got back we got changed and walked over to the entrance to the climb up the mountain. There is a Greek temple high up above the city. The views are amazing, I’m sure. However the park was closed and wouldn’t let us go up. So we got our swimsuits and headed to the beach for a sun set swim. Renee said the water was colder than torch lake. Gabe stopped and got the kids some dinner from the restaurant on the corner. He and I went to a cute bistro near the Duomo for some sea bass. The food choices so far are very seafood focused. There is not many choices on the menus of dishes that don’t have seafood on it. My Mom and Dad would love all the anchovies! I may have to give them a try at least once. They have fried anchovies, and sea urchin pasta that sound interesting to me.
