Cefalu, Sicily

Cefalu is a beautiful village in Sicily. Breathtaking views of the sea, a cathedral in the center of town, small winding streets packed with tiny stores, and a million restaurants. 





We met up with our traveling buddies to see Sicily. We have an apartment that is on the coast.  We can hear the waves through our floor-to-ceiling doors. This is a view from our bed room.



 

Every town has a church (multiple churches) and cathedrals. This is the one in Cefalu. It's old like the 10 century  by a Norman King vying to be the head of the Catholic church. It's all done in mosaics and it's beautiful.



On our way to our next destination we stopped in Messina.  From the coast of Sicily you can see the Italian mainland.  Ferries run between the two on a regular basis.





No selfie, just pretty pots lining an alley.
