The next day we docked in the Port of Messina, on the Sicilian coast. Our tour guide was Australian, and although he’d been a tour guide for decades, he had no sense of pacing. He rambled on all the time about things that were not necessarily relevant, or that he had already said three or four times. You’d think he was being paid by the word. It did make it difficult to actually stop and look at what we were seeing and take pictures, because the only time he stopped talking was when we had to move on to the next spot. Regardless, we really enjoyed the area, and would be happy to go back. We also did some shopping. Next time you come over, remind me to show you the tablecloth.

From Castelmola and Taormina
