Getting excited about the trip.

Learning a bit of the language...and brushing up on some history.

Looks like we'll be able to see some great historic sites and remains of the varied peoples who crossed through Sicily.

We've got primary stops arranged and a few days to free-wheel it and do whatever strikes us at the time.
