Isola Bella

This morning from the window of my room I awoke to see an endless clear blue sky and the deep, endless and inviting green and blue sea. The beauty of the sea is reflected in the people I meet. I am intrigued by Southern Italy and eager to explore the surrounding towns. Those perched on the hill: Taormina and Castelmola and those that cusp the sea: Giardini-Nexus and Lido.

I didn't realise how much I needed to stop, relax and sleep until I arrived in Scilia. This trip to Italy has been full of work related meetings, committments and travel and I'm exhausted.

Anyway, the weather here is absoultely gorgeous (23 degrees, warm summer days and crisp summer evenings) and so conjucive to lying on the beach daydreaming, sleeping and reading.

Below are images of Isola Bella - my first coastal indulgence.
