Nothing to Labor About this Weekend...

Summer is Sicily is coming to a close and we were invited to join Matt and Christine for a weekend in San Vito Lo Capo, one of Sicily's famous beach towns in the Trapani Region - about 4 hours from our home in Nicolosi.

On this map to the left of Palermo you can find San Vito Lo Capo. We live near Catania. You can also tell from the map how close we are to Africa (lower).



So this is how we spent our day...a little bit of lounging, reading, talking story snoozing and swimming..and of course, getting a massage!



You can head pretty far out into the sea and still stand. So Christine and I enjoyed power walking through the water nearly from end to end of the coast...while Matt and Rob body surfed.



The end of the day on the beach is so beautiful as the air gets cool, the tide retracts and the sun slips away...



In this photo you can see the lighthouse in the distance. Beneath the sea and in front of the light house, there is an Arab-Norman ship that sank. Relics from the ship were rescued from the bottom of the sea and placed in Vito's sea museum, which we didn't get to see...
