Erice

Erice, the ghost town

Today we visited the ghost town Erice close to Trapani on the North West coast of Sicily.

The town was not at so high altitude, around 750m, but still the clouds came rolling in on a regular basis. Very nice scenery with old buildings, streets, churches and “castles”. The big difference between Erice and the rest of Italy is the noise level, it was so quiet and peaceful when walking though the “town”. At the same time it was allowed to drive through the town with a car and we were forced to on the way out from Erice. We were lucky that we had replaced the big bus with a Renault Scenic that is a normal sized car due to the size of the allies.

Tomorrow it will be a day on the beach before we head home, it will be sad to leave Sofia and David but we all know they will continue in the best manner as normal on the way home to Göteborg.
