Sicily - best bed&breakfest
Out of all the hotels and B&B's that we stayed in, there was one place that we particularly enjoyed. It was near Agrigento, in the south of Sicily, where the famous site of Greek temples is located. It was an extremely peaceful place, filled with animals and extraordinary charm. Not only were we welcomed with a bottle of excellent house wine, but also we could use the swimming pool at the time of our arrival (midnight!) and even the bathroom was so welcoming: it had a complete shaving set for the gentleman and the so needed in the trip cosmetic pads for the lady!
This was the first thing in the morning you would see after opening the doors:
And this is a couple of shots of the area around the Bed and Breakfest.

Sicily - Vulcano
I think out of the whole holidays, the most beautiful place was the Vulcano island, one of the Eolian islands. As the name properly suggests, the island is pretty much a volcano. It is not active any more, therefore it is possible to go up to the canion and look inside! I loved the amazing views from the top of it!
...you just need to get used to the more or less intensive smell of sulfur....:)

Sicily - Palermo
We have actually only seen Palermo for a couple of hours, on the way to Cefalu, as we have read and heard that it is too big city to sightsee with pleasure in such high temperatures. However, I tend to disagree. Palermo might be a big city, but it has a lot of charm, and as I will strongly discourage you from visiting Catania (to me quite a dirty and unsafe place), I will say that Palermo is worth to see!

Sicily - west coast
After my return from holidays I needed to go through over a thousand of pictures that we made in Sicily. Now its time to share with you some of them :) I will follow the example of my friend Aude and share them in parts.
Our trip was planned as a circle around the island, starting on the west coast, in Trapani. Below our first day of going around in the area.
