Day 7 Sicily Ortigia Fratelli Burgio Tapas



Our last day in Sicily, and there were sad goodbyes to Gina’s uncles and their wives as they left to see Mt. Etna. They will leave for the US tomorrow morning. It has been so much fun to spend this time with them on the Sicilian shores of the Mediterranean Sea!

As it turned out, we needed to go to Siricusa to get Peter’s dry cleaning; and Gina, Will, Kim and Cheryl needed to go close to there in Ortigia to purchase some farmers’ market treats to take to Gina’s grandmother before leaving for the US this evening. So,before the rest of us departed from Sicily, we met up at the Fratelli  Burgio stand at the farmers’ market in Ortigia for a delightful lunch of tapas dishes of cheese, meets, fruits and bread sticks. It was just wonderful! The perfect ending to a perfect vacation! Thanks for treating us to lunch, Gina and Will, and thanks to all for including us in your vacation!

Thought you’d like to see some other random pics that didn’t get in yet!

Love, Colleen
