    H-Day 27 Novara di Sicilia

    April 20, 2023 in Italy ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

    I've got up earlier today. It was really a warmer night in comparison to the last ones. Such a difference. The altitude and there better weather. In the morning no clouds at the sky. So i realized that the sunrise is distinct earlier in comparison to the beginning of the journey. About 5:30am i could pack my belongings together without light.

    At Novara you realize that not much is happening in this village right now. No idea how it is in main season. Same same as Floresta before. Just a little bit bigger. Quite a few tiny shops. Most have announced "typical food of the area" on there signs; just before the small entrance door. It was always better to leave the backpack with Lupo outside. Otherwise it is hard to turn around in the shop without damaging everything.

    The interesting actually is, that it doesn't matter about the title of the shop. Alimentari, Frutta e Vedura, ... The shop has always the same stuff inside. The Sortiment is almost identical. Strange.
    Most bars have had closed early in the morning. Have also not had these fresh baked cakes and croissants. Everything pretty simple.
    So this time I decided to buy food for cooking. Spaghetti No. 1. 3 min noodles. I hope this work out well. I have used lots of my gas for hearing the fire in the last bivacco.
    I also got some nice bones for Lupo.
    But all in all, food in these small villages cost definitely more than before, where i have not been so remote.

    ... Approximately 90km left to the ferry in Messina....to leave Sicily.
