A breathtaking view of Melilli, Julie's Dad's hometown.	Yours truly.	Julie's Uncle, Auntie and 2 cousins and 2 of their friends, stepping out in style just before the wedding ceremony.	Clint with Julie's cousin, Antonello.
The bride, Maria Concetta and father. Late of course!	Striking a pose wiith the bride and groom with the extravagant dessert table behind us. Yes, not ALL of the table is shown!	Antonello, Katie and the brides sister, Christina. Taking a break, resting our stomachs from eating so much food.	Cousin Katie and ummmmm..... oops, can't remember his name...!
All together now, 'cheeeeese'!!	Julie with her Zio Zino and Zia Pinuccia. All smiles.	Joc and Roger. Uncle Bruno and Aunt Angie's friends.	Main course: a not very small Swordfish. Delicious!
One of the many glorious feasts at Antonello's Farm.	Julie doing some dirty work, definately worth all of the pasta that she had consumed.	The next day organising the pizza preperation	More prep.
More prep.	Zio Zino looks on with curiosity.	Digging in.	The connoisseurs giving the pizza approval.
Clint munching through pizza slice number 22.	Home grown grapes.	Nona giving Samo some advice.	Birthdays boy's brother, Samuel. Only two but talked your ears off!! So cute.
Hard work getting Samo to look in one spot.	Nonna and Zio Zino reminiscing.	Nonna and Clint.	The pizza consumers, all very full and sunburnt.
Clint and his Sicilian Magic Fan Club. Julie's cousin, Stefano's birthday party.	'How do you do thaaaat?'	The birthday boy in black.	Samo, cutie.
Julie's cousin Antonello, his gorgeous wife Concetta with Stefano and Samuel.	We formed a fantastic bond and taught each other English/Sicilian.	A small part of the Melilli Markets with the beautiful San Sebastian Church in the background.	Julie and her beloved Nonna.
Us outside Nonnas house on a bright morning.	The Mediterrean Sea. A very nice beach we went to, the water was gorgeous.	Was once a tuna factory-type thingy!! Can't remember the exact name, dohh.	Another view of the tuna place, lovely pic, pity about the head bobbing up in the water.
A building in Noto, there were lots of beautiful ones.	Ditto.	A statue of Hercules, woo hoo. We don't know the significance....	Words fail us.... An alley way somewhere in Noto.
Lots of steep hills, lots of sore legs.
