On the road from our first few days staying at the foot of Etna, down to the world that is Caltagirone. A town famous for its pottery works and tiles. After there, we progressed to the next place to stay Modica, home of ancient chocolate recipes and crazy back alleys.
 |
| Caltagirone town hall. |
 |
| Ceramics workshop |
 |
| the main reason most people come, are these steps and the associated ceramics. |
 |
| Even the sun is happy. |
 |
| The Taking of the Bell of Altavilla to Caltagirone, polychrome maiolica mosaic |
 |
| Great street art using the traditional Moor heads. |
 |
| more ceramic work |
 |
| Not one for the vegetarians and vegans, but one for food lovers, this is Cavallo one of the main reasons I go back to Italy. Horse meat, it is a divine pleasure. And a panini for €2 you can't go wrong. |
 |
| The Giardino Publico has the great mosaic gazebo in the middle. |
 |
| Moorishly out of this world. |
 |
| Like a physical tetris game |
 |
| The park has great avenues to stroll around |
 |
| You'll even see an old friend pop up. |
 |
| Then onto Modica, where our apartment had this really cool view. |
 |
| I love all the terracotta roof work in Sicily. |
 |
| This guy wasn't too fussed |
 |
| Another non-plussed local. |
 |
| hoof. |
 |
| Four leafed clover? |
 |
| It does MATER apparently. |
 |
| Just give me a street light, a gorgeous model and some sunshine and I'll make you smile. |
