A nice drive down to the sea with Linda and Gino this morning. At an almost deserted Marina di Modica, the sea shimmered with tantalising colours in the autumnal light and a beautiful hibiscus was in full bloom.
Some discerning [mostly German] campers have taken up residence, in their vans, in one of the squares; apparently they shut up their homes for the winter, thus saving on fuel, and spend the season here. Not a bad idea, is it?
And one day you will, dragonstar! Hi, Leslie. One day when we are both better, perhaps we'll have a drink on the Med! Thanks, Rhi. Of course - I am flattered. Hi, Anne. Glad you have had good weather in Liguria. Hi, WW. Yes, we don't realise how much we need to see the sea, do we? Poor jams - I know all about waiting for plumbers....
Sigh - as we wait for snow, although my daughter who works in The Caribbean longs for cool and snow And of course we have amazing sea here.wild and angry ,but still inviting and beautiful
I'm a sort-of retired language teacher from Cardiff, Wales, UK, now trying to make a new life in Sicily. I'm not growing vines, making olive oil or restoring a palace stone by stone!

That middle picture is so inviting. I'd love to be able to sit on those stone benches right now.
Oh what I wouldn't give to be able to see the Med today! The rain has somewhat abated, but let's face it, it's November in North America! blah!
Thank you! I love your photos as well!! Might I use one to post on my blog?
Oh WL I have seen the sea so many times this week :-) warm and sunny weather as well.
Back to gloomy UK tomorrow :-(
That's a tonic for your spirits! I must say that since I've been working in Bournemouth, I get withdrawal symptoms if I don't see the sea once a week.
I wish I was there now rather than waiting for a plumber with a streaming cold!

Are they allowed to do that? I can understand why though.
Hi, Ellee. Yes, they are there perfectly legally. They don't bother anybody and empty their loos in the designated places!
Most certainly looks different to what I remember.
It looks wonderful :-)
