Blue, blue and more blue across Sicily: Doors by the seaside painted a vibrant Mediterranean blue reflecting the closeness and depth of the sea; evening skies in a splendid cobalt; a blue sky, clear and crisp in the interior mountains of the Madonie;

'Full moon' blue in a mountain village; a white dome against a spring sky; golden stone framed by the bluest skies; festive lights in a dazzling blue adorning a church facade... the best blues.

Easter flowers, wisteria and wildflowers

In a Sicilian spring flowers adorn the island. And this spring they were lovely - on Easter’s mournful Good Friday in Polizzi Generosa in April, wandering the streets of Polizzi, driving the mountain roads of the Madonie, and travelling the interior roads and along the Ionian Sea.
