Sadly our #Sicily sojourn has come to an end. I leave you with the beautifully preserved old olive press and a giant arancino starter from our lovely agriturismo, Masseria Santa Catrini.

Lots of these little ‘egagropili’ (balls of sea vegetation) on the beach at Vendicari #Sicily. Intriguing little things, like shipwrecked kiwi fruit.
