Montreale and Cefalu

Today we started the day with a walk through the market in Palermo. Lots of really neat food on sale. Next, we went to the Cathedral of Montreale, which was similar to the Cathedral we saw yesterday, but even bigger with more mosaics. The coordination it must have taken between the architect and the artists is amazing. Then we went to the beach town of Cefalu, where we walked around and had lunch. Cefalu has the biggest truly sand beach I've seen anywhere in Italy. We didn't have time to go swimming, but it was neat to look at. After we left Cefalu, we went to our hotel, which is a converted Abbey, now home to a winery. Tonight it's dinner and a wine tasting. Tomorrow -- Mount Etna.
