But first, breakfast

We’re still mostly on US Eastern time and not acclimated to the change, so it was 10:30 (am) before rousing our sleepy selves to the street to find breakfast. Which we did at a nearby grocery store, of which there are many. More on that from Diane soon.

A sunny, 65-ish degrees today. Very pleasant.

Giuseppe Garibaldi

Teatro PoliteamaGaribaldi, Palermo, Sicily

In the corner of the Plaza Italia there stands a multipurpose theater, dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi. From Wikipedia, Giuseppe (4 July 1807 – 2 June 1882) “was an Italian general, revolutionary and republican. He contributed to Italian Unification (Risorgimento) and the creation of the Kingdom of Italy. He is considered to be one of Italy’s “fathers of the fatherland.”

Foxy

I love foxes, and therefore had to have this t-shirt. But a fox carrying a sneaker? Not as random of a graphic as you think. In the summer of 2018, articles of clothing like boots, towels, gloves, sneakers, left out overnight started disappearing completely or showing up at the other end of town.

The mystery was solved when some hikers noticed random articles of clothing around a fox den in the hills.

Love dem tricksie foxes. 😆
