Sicily Travel: Palermo Again

My friend Lenore is here visiting from Whitehorse and today we headed into Palermo by train to see the sights. We had a great day, wandering around and finding our way to most of the spots we wanted to see. We were shut out of the Theatro Massimo unfortunately, but saw the lovely outside. We also saw a couple of the street markets including one that included lots of fabric. Christopher counted himself lucky that I didn't come back with metres and metres of that lovely fabric. There was even a tassel and antimacassar store - where else? Then we headed to the archaeological museum, which sadly, was mostly closed for renovations, but had a special exhibit about Palermo history and food. That being so brief we had plenty of time for a leisurely lunch at Al Macheroni a restaurant we first visited 7 years ago on our first time in Palermo. Still there, still serving good food.
