The Italian traveler's diary: "Sicily - The province of Trapani - Part





































continue our journey through the province of Trapani and it does so in the best way with the beautiful Erice. Surprisingly, when we arrive in Erice are welcomed by a mild winter. The curious medieval town is perched on a promontory from which you can enjoy an exceptional view. At night, in particular, you can admire Trapani with lights that create a delightful setting. Walking through the narrow streets are surrounded by music of Argentine recall the ancient and elegant dance the tango. These are the days of an international festival of tango and Erice is celebrating.

Unfortunately our time is not available and we take advantage to go to dinner at a restaurant recommended by a guide improvised printed via the Internet: "The piñata." Choice was never more apt! The sober and elegant warmth welcomed us to his family. I'm going straight to the point: noodles with shrimp and scallops and pistachio swordfish! Others prefer busiati seafood, Spaccatelle mixed with sardines and frying. The result, however, is always the same. A delicacy! We go from "La piñata" full and satisfied. He, however, 'too cold to stay and we are moving towards the car.

In return, however, we can not help but stop at a particular and spectacular pastries that bears the name of Mrs. Grammatico Mary. Cupboards full of all goodness leaves us speechless. The immortal foaming at the mouth with my compact camera and let us literally the eyes. We buy everything and more because, when you see certain things, you can not and must not resist. Leaving the pastry "Maria Grammatico" we do not find more distractions along the way and we put ourselves in the car to go back to that of San Vito.

The next day our program includes a trip to the Saline and the tour of Scopello. After some uncertainty, following the road to Nubia, we find our destination. Water drawn from barbed wire and windmills are what they are. Let's even a visit to the salt museum, set inside a restaurant, though he could not prove it, I think we eat very well. We continue to Scopello and we get there in a flash. Parked the car begin to scour the area until you find signs to reach the tuna and the Fraglioni. Stoics and loads we set off for steep trails and we are not disappointed by what lies ahead. The tuna is fantastic and the stacks even more. Taking a myriad of photos and am amazed by the fact-finding rent rooms in a place so magical. As always, after the walk, it's time to eat. This time we do not have advice from the guide. We stop first at "Baglio" but then, at the behest of the group, we decided to go to a restaurant a bit 'more spartan but equally pleasant.
we come to the last day of our holiday and we decide to spend it in San Vito to enjoy its vast beaches of golden sand and a little 'relaxation. After a nice "browned" the sun we go to the main street where there are stalls of all kinds. It 's the day of the "Cous-Cous. San Vito starts to fill with people and spend pleasant hours. I buy some local produce and, seized with a fit of gluttony, I "shot" a giant cannoli with ricotta cheese and shavings of dark chocolate. The next morning, at a good pace, we return the keys to our apartments, we deliver the leased car and, thanks to the same taxi that had brought us to San Vito leg, We head for the airport ending, alas, this wonderful holiday.

The Italian traveler's diary: "Sicily - The province of Trapani - Part





















A new adventure, a new journey. To restore mind and body decided to take a week relax and leave for Sicily. The period is optimal: late May - early June. A few tourists, cheap prices and pleasant weather. Ryan-air a flight of capital from the Doric brings me to the city of Trapani in just over an hour. Our destination - I'm part of a group of eleven people - is the wonderful San Vito Lo Capo. From Trapani airport take a bus into town. From there, unfortunately, we find no connection to San Vito. We try to hire a couple of cars that unfortunately we can not find. We are concerned: the evening is approaching and we do not know how to reach the Notre goal.


With a stroke of luck you will find rest in a small pastry of the place. The owner, nice man and kind, after having offered us the delicious almond cookies that calls us two taxis, a little later, will lead us to the destination. The apartment we had booked earlier are pleasing and finally begin to breathe the air of vacation. After a quick dinner and a night's sleep we are ready to live San Vito Lo Capo. San Vito offers a wonderful landscape show. The streets are full of features full of souvenir shops and restaurants. Our accommodations are at the heart of the town and the sea is only a hundred meters from our apartments. Graceful walk on the beach on the sand smooth and admire the Mediterranean Sea in all its brilliance and clarity. The setting is that of fairy tales.

For lunch we decide to grant the oranges and bread in cunzato Pizzeria Da Salvo ". Welcoming place, cheap and delicious food. In the early afternoon we can rent two machines. San Vito is nice, but we are not satisfied and want to see everything that is possible in only 6 days. In the afternoon we stop at the natural reserve of Zingaro. What we expect is a charming picture-postcard scenery. For a few intimate coves with breathtaking views. Sure, you conquistarsele with a little 'hard work, but I assure you, it's worth it. What advice for those who will venture into the reserve is to bring sandwiches and enough water. Everything is completely natural and it will not find bar kiosks where to shop. In return you will find the museum of maritime activities and that of the civilization that you can visit along the way to the cave Uzzo.


returning to San Vito prepare a nice dinner made with red and white wine, shrimp, seafood salad, fresh tuna and olive bread. We conclude with some sweets and a place of bitter almond. The next day we stopped in Trapani. We are ready to visit the island of Commissioner Cat: "Favignana. Here, too, do not betray the expectations. After a forty minute ferry ride we reach the best known of Egadi. We decide to rent of bicycles on site and begin to explore Favignana. In our travels we opt to go to "Cala Rossa". A natural area by going down to earn some small roads, steep and that, once established, gives us emotions to make your heart palpitate. The water is cold and crystalline. We spread towels on the rocky mantle and breathe the air of freedom.


Returning from "Cala Rossa" go to the center of the island. We buy some cakes from a bakery and eat greedily. After the cakes we grant even an ice cream incredibly good. I choose three flavors: English soup, pistachio and cassata. What a pleasure!! At the going down of the sunset take the ferry at 18:30 to make a return and Trapani, From there, the cars they had parked near the port area.
