Saturday: The Coast

March 29, 2010

My mom arrived in Sicily at the end of last week. On Saturday we headed south of Siracusa to the coast. We meandered along country roads exploding with the colors of spring...flowering trees, wildflowers, and lemons. Eventually those roads led us to Fontane Bianche where we scrambled out of the car to explore the tide pools and filled our pockets with shells, sea glass,and bits of washed up tiles. Then back in the car as we headed further south to share the wonders of Vendicari with my mom. It was a great day to be on the beach...sunny and breezy. We had some fiber ball fights, basked in the sun, and watched a flock of flamingos flying overhead. And then to top off an already perfect day there was a gelato truck waiting as we exited the reserve. It is so good to be able to share all of this with my mom.
