Marsala, Sicily

Marsala reminds us of Bonaire.  It has salt pans, windmills, great sunsets, kite surfers, and ocean views.  We feel right at home.
 



There are restaurants that are set up in the vineyards. Charcuterie boards and bruschette that are out of this world. They have a number of beach bars and restaurants that remind us of  "Snacks" only better.



The sunsets over the ocean are spectacular just like Bonaire, One photo was taken from our patio and the other from a beach bar where everyone gathers to see the sunsets. 






Marsala has a walking old town area with sidewalks and streets done in white marble.  It's very clean and not too crowded for this time of year.  It also has several churches just like every  other town, village and city in Italy.



Our rental has a view over the vineyards and to the sea. It's in a tiny village. The directions were  crazy to find it ( just like directions in Bonaire).

"When you are in Vicolo Diodoro Siculo take the second small road on the right, you will see a dead tree in front of you, take this one and go straight, even if it narrows a little, don't worry it is the right one."



The best part was sharing it with friends. This was our last stop with our companions.  We dropped them in the early morning darkness at a deserted bus stop near the airport. We waited 5 minutes in the car and a bus showed up.  They climbed aboard and were off to their next adventure.
