Tricia's Trip to Sicily Part II: Palermo


After going to Syracusa, Tricia and I decided to head across Sicily to go to Palermo. We did a bunch of research and found all sorts of lovely sights and things to do in Polermo, including what was supposed to be the most beautiful church in the world.



We also arrived in the middle of a garbage collector's strike.




Trish and I walked/drove around the city for about 20 minutes and took some pictures of some of the more interesting buildings.



But we didn't stay for long. There was garbage just about everywhere, striking workers and when we tried to leave, a truck blocking in my car. After tipping (bribing) the owner of the truck to move it, we were on our way out of Palermo. I guess you just win some and lose some.
