Exploring Palermo

We hit the streets of Palermo's old city today.

A busy street fair, a few parks, the Palermo Cathedral, a few other churches, the marina in Palermo harbor, a giant mural of what we read were the two Italian judges who brought down the Mafia in Sicily.

Back to the Cathedral Piazza, where we ran into a bachelorette party having fun giving the bride-to-be an interesting costume.

Today is Liberation Day, a national holiday in Italy, celebrating the Anti-Fascist Resistance overthrow of the Fascists and Nazi's in 1945. The celebrations have been growing all weekend. The streets are loud tonight!Les mer
