Taormina

Yesterday we went to the beach on the way to Taormina, a town overlooking the sea, but high above it. We had been told how lovely it was, but we thought it ruined by tourists.

However the coastline nearby is very nice. Seaside towns where local people go to the beach are off the main road and to get to them means twisting and turning through the narrowest of streets. So easy to get lost. Driving is horrific, and Sicilian drivers are unbelievable.

We spent some time at one of these beaches, very relaxing.

Last night we had dinner with a couple from Alsace, and a couple from Bristol. Outside in the warm evening, Giovanni cooked another beautiful meal. Very entertaining.
