Slow start today .. then off to the Royal Palace! Lots of interesting mosaic work with Arab influences. Then a capucino around the statues of Piazza di Bellini and some more churches .. some overwhelming with carved details .. black and white seemed to work better!

It was a long walk to the Botanical Gardens and it was not that interesting until we found the cactus section! Some nice pics!

Ice cream for lunch after finding the bicycle repair street (Divisi) .. then siesta .. then dinner .. then pack as we take the bus back to our bikes in Trapani tomorrow!

Cheers!

Harold and Marion

PS .. mystery continues as to what HB wore to the Opera ...
