Bob and Marianne, we just discovered Donnalucata which I loved. We have a house in Noto.
ciao,
Catherine

You might say that! I studied in Firenze when I was in college and the drug never wore off. Many years and many trips back to Italy and I am still having a passionate love affair with the country. Unlike you lucky ones, who return and somehow make a wonderful go of it rebuilding old houses and live your dream in Italia…I have a long distance affair that is fueled and kept alive with my language studies. You can visit my at my blog “Diario di una Studentessa Matta” http://melissamuldoon.wordpress.com/ and join me in my quest to conquer this beautiful language! A presto!

Josephine–how wonderful to have you as a reader, to know a bit about your history, and that you were married in the cathedral! Did you know Palazzo Cosentini is undergoing renovation now? I think it’s going to be a museum. It’s so beautiful inside. Thank you for telling me about your great-grandfather the sculptor. It’s amazing. Please continue commenting. I have so much to learn from you… And the next time you’re in Ibla, please let me know!
