Wonderful Day Trip with Umberto
Umberto was our guide/driver. He spent every minute accomanying us at Monreale and Cefalu. Both towns are worth seeing. Had a great lunch in Cefalu. Umberto discovered that we were interested in Sicilian ceramics and took us to master ceramist' studio and factory where we met the owner and his family and given an impromptu tour of their process. This was totally off the books but appreciated by us.
