Sorry about the lack of blog postings the last few days.  We've had very slow internet connections the last couple hotels which means I can't upload photos.  I have tons of them just waiting to be published - from both groups.  After several frustrating hours of trying to get them to you, I'm giving up until I get home. I'll publish tales and photos of the last half of our trip when I have that lightening fast internet connection.

One of our favorites was Caponata, a sublime dish with eggplant, onion, capers, tomatoes, etc.  We had it with almost every meal when near Palermo.  I found dozens of recipes on-line but this is the one I liked best because it has such a good explanation preparation techniques and how to select the eggplant.  Click here for the Caponata Recipe.

Like the language, the foods of Italy vary from region to region.  Flavors of Southern italy and Sicly is the title of this itinerary and the tripi is aptly described.  Here's a sampling of some of our experiences...

Travel is a wonderful way to enjoy quality time with friends and family. Travel Our World trips were originally designed for Sun City Grand residents, their friends and families.  While many of our travelers are from Sun City Grand we've been amazed at how many friends and families are traveling with us.  We're all friends now!

People have come from near and far for this wonderful Flavors of Southern Italy and Sicily trip.   

Check out some of the special relationships within the larger group.
