The inspector Montalbano on the British autumn...



I decided to read some articles, reviews about the Inspector Montalbano and its success in Great Britain..
Many English tourists now come to Sicily and  show curiosity about the movie-set where the Italian serial takes place..

Looking for on Internet I found this spot about Montalbano DVD on BBC4
 Surely to watch Montalbano with subtitles is not the best!

 What a  shame not to understand the funny and colourful local  linguistic  expression in Sicilian dialect which partly also makes the success of Montalbano.

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!
