Day 12: Puglia/ Materna/
Messina-Sicily
Our first destination in Sicily! We left Puglia and our little Trulli house at 8:00 this morning. We then drove 90 mins to Materna, which is a great, old town with stunning views! There, we had breakfast and a snack. After, we drove four hours to where we were getting a 20 minute ferry to Messina, Sicily. We were running a bit late for the ferry, and just managed to squeeze on to the 4:10 pm one. We then settled into the apartment that we are staying in for the next 2 nights, and then decided to explore the neighbourhood, and eat out at a very fancy restaurant, where the waiter was SO enthusiastic about his dishes, it was crazy! Messina is not a Great town, with lots of pollution, and Graffiti, but overall, we’re going to have a lot of fun!
