Kevnjans big adventure.

Wed. 11th.Jan.
Settling in day.  It poured with rain again last night, big thunderstorm, high winds, van let in water where I repaired it last week.  Good job Kev!!  Before anything else I had to make that good.  The rain here is like nothing we see in England, like someone turns a tap on.  Anyway the job's done, fingers crossed.  The sun shone for a while and it was quite warm, sat out and had coffee, Ian and Michelle dressed in hats gloves and overcoats!!  In the afternoon we took a walk around the local village, Caldura, decided against a long excursion in the car after much travelling yesterday.  We discovered a restaurant and a couple of bars so all the essentials are taken care of.  By 2.30pm the weather was turning colder again and having laid in some necessary supplies from the local grocer, wine, whisky and Amaretto we settled down for a siesta.  In the evening we drove to Cefalu, had a good walk around and found a pleasant trattoria where we enjoyed some delicious Italian fare.  Back to the van for nightcaps and pictures of the day's activities.  Despite the late night found time to read a few pages on my new toy, a Kindle.  Wonderful invention.
