Friends asked to pick a hotel for a week-long holiday on the Tyrrhenian Sea in the city of Terracina. Since the vacation is planned in September, and we were puzzled by the search for the hotel only in mid-May and many good options were already booked, I shifted the possible reservation dates to neighboring free ones.

Which of us did not dream of being in the past and seeing with our own eyes how everything looked before. A small town on Silicia, lost high in the clouds, is ready to provide you with such an opportunity. Arriving in Erice (Erice) you can see how time has stopped. As if at one moment the city stopped keeping up with the times, and its architecture remained where in the Middle Ages.
The first attraction of Trapani, where Mario and Antonella brought us after going to the local supermarket, was the fish market. Sicily is famous for its sweets, garlic and seafood. Everyone has already heard the legendary traditional fishing for red tuna, which takes place just in the western part of the island, and more precisely near the nearby island of Favignana in early summer.

After dinner at Calvino, one of the best pizzerias in Sicily, and maybe all over the world, Mario and Antonella and I went for a short walk along the nightly Trapani. Let me remind readers that this happened at the end of November - at this time there are practically no tourists on the island. I admit, the city impressed me very much.
