Oh, this was such a better idea! Last time we spoke, we were packing up on our plans to spend a week in Palermo, deciding where to relocate. We landed on the well-touristed town of Cefalù, and are so glad we did!
Besides being just nice on the eyes, it has a super beach. Sandy, clean, hermit–crab-ful, artistically inspiring (and sparsely populated the closer you get to our apartment).
We spent several days in a lovely rhythm of breakfast, beach, picnic lunch, apartment pool, dinner, sunset, bed.
Except for the day we decided to hike up to the top of the mountain towering over the town. 260 m above sea level are ruins of a fortress and battlements and a castle. And great views, despite the sweat in our eyes.
We continue on our journey now, to the eastern side of the island. Onward, to Etna! Ciao, Cefalù!
