Trapani, Sicily

We did a few more things in Holland, though I have to catch up on the blog - so fast forward o Sicily! After Holland Renee and I took a RyanAir to Trapani, Sicily.... now this place is more like a vacation. The weather was perfect beach weather. Sunny and warm.

We booked a night at a Hostel, however the owner had a free room at his B+B, so we stayed there instead! He was a great help with getting us around, and telling us what there was to do. One of the nights we went down to the Trapani Historic district.
From there we could see statues and old buildings. We also took a walk down to the harbor to look back over the city. The Mediterranean water is perfectly clear - you can see all the fish moving along the bottom.
From there we watched the sun-set over the Mediterranean sea. We also made sure to have pizza + gelato.

  2. omg that water is so CLEAR AND BEAUTIFUL. It's making me dislike the regrettably cold, smelly, and murky ocean water we have here.

  3. Mildly jealous. There's a ship docked up in Italy called the HMS Bounty... she's a beautiful tall ship. I'd totally visit the ship if I was there!

    Also, beautiful city!

  5. Of course we'll go to the beach. What kind of a question is that. I can feel some peach + Oma's pool this summer!

  6. Great, the pool is open and in a few days the water will be nice and warm. I hope you and all your friends will come to my "resort" often.
