From Messina we steamed West across the top of Sicily to Trapani, the NorthWest corner, the only city where we were to stay for two days. It’s a cute port, a bit of fallen glory I would say, as the importance of its Tuna fisheries have diminished.
The waterfront features some classic architecture; almost Italian, but most definitely Sicilian.
The old buildings downtown have been well maintained.
The scene of the old fish market, now a touristy bazaar.
The fishing harbor…
At one time filled with boats, now, quiet…
But there are still plenty of workboats about.
Triton stands guard.
Dinner! – at Torre Vecchio – not quite the tower in Venice, but still most cool.
Looks promising…
OMG
Incredible!
And the wine was perfect
..
The city comes alive at night
Home sweet home!
How did I get here
