Palermo and Sciacca

Shortly after arriving in Spain, my boyfriend and I joined my grandmother in Sicily. We first visited Palermo and saw a few sites. It's a beautiful city with lots to see. Then we went to Sciacca, where my great grandmother was born. There we have some distant relatives who share a relation with my great grandmother. They own a jewelry store and design everything themselves, creating beautiful pieces of art. Sciacca is a quiet fishing town and we enjoyed walking around. It was a very short trip of about 2.5 days, but I got some good pictures out of it.
