street - traders in Sicily

























certo che i nostri venditori ambulanti si sono ormai modernizzati!
ancora in giro a vendere meloni sulla l'apa ma con il microfono
p.s. i meloni dalle nostre parti sono i cocomeri o angurie !

E di questo che mi dite!!!!!???
In divieto di sosta davanti ad una chiesa......
sempre con la l'apa ma perchè no, un umbrellone da spiaggia per riparasi dal sole cocente è una buona idea!

And what about this one?
In a no parking area at the corner of a church.
But what a great idea ! A beach umbrella to repair himself and his oranges from the hot sun!!

Busulmona: like Heaven!

Busulmona : XIXth  century farmhouse, once property of the  Cavaliere Sessa, today run by the family Di Pino. 5 km far from Noto it is immersed in a wonderful almond grove and carobs olives and all the colours of nature   make of this piece of Sicily a true paradise! It works as a B&B at the moment with only two bedroom, but it's also possible to have lunch tasting olive oil and almonds and wathever  what rigorously the family produce and cook for you!  Tranquillity, harmony, genuinity.. this are the things coming to my mind when I was there The name Busulmona , which is the name of all that area,comes from the Arabic and means the land of sun....  an extraordinary view  from the stone terrace on the Val di Noto, from Noto to Vendicari and Marzamemi... . for further information : www.busulmona.com

Now it's better!

Now it's better! Here I am! It's 6 weeks now since I fell, having troubles with the legaments of my right knee! Ahi che dolor! No work,no walk .......... Now it's better.....but slowly slowly....... Buona giornata!
