Bye Bye Sicily

8/9/2014

After I pried Britt away from her new doggy friend, who was adorable and had followed her home, we caught the San Giovanni ferry at Messina.  It wasn't the easiest thing to find and we ended up following a Dutch couple from where we bought the ticket to the other side of the port to the ferry.  The folks who sold us the ticket didn't seem to care that we didn't know where to go and that we were sitting in the parking lot for a half hour waiting for a ferry that didn't even come there.  Anyhow, the Dutch saved us and we were on our way. The funny thing about this is that once we disembarked the Dutch turned right on one highway, we went left on another highway, we each drove for over an hour and we ended up right behind them at a service centre.  They didn't see us, which was good because we didn't want them to think we were “creeping them” (Lookie Looke Baby Dutch - see post below).

We didn't have a place to stay - we were winging it.  On the GPS we had found an Agritourismo place that didn't really exist but we found one close by. It was great.  We were beat.
