A week ago Thursday, Amy's parents went to see the University of Miami!
We woke to some sun.
The view out my bedroom.
I went to get some breakfast. Weird to see the town so quiet.
Yum.
We walked down to meet our guide.
That's the hotel where they filmed White Lotus season 2. And that's a giant volcano behind it!
We headed out on our tour to see the filing locations of the Godfather movies and also hea about the real Sicilian mafia.
We drove along the coast.
To the next town. Francis Ford Coppola was looking for shooting locations for the Godfather in the early 1970's and came across this town totally by accident.
Nice Citroen.
We walked into the town.
I remember this from the movie. It's in a lot of scenes.
Here are the scenes!
Aden really loved all of this.
Pretty views from the town.
It was really quiet there.
More scenes were filmed here.
Our guide was fascinating.
More scenes from the movies.
This bike was in the movies. There were lots of pictures from the productions.
Then we drove to the next town where more was filmed.
Love the merch.
More pretty views.
A local artist made this for Francis Ford Coppola.
Many scenes were filmed here.
We had an awesome pasta lunch with some great wine and cappuccino.
The twins got silly.
We headed back to Taormina.
It looked like my Vespa!
Ariel and I went shopping while everyone else rested.
We found some fancy snacks. We had to keep up our strength for shopping.
Louis Vuitton is a dangerous place!
Love the restaurants on the steps.
We found a place for dinner that didn't have only Italian food!
Some heavy duty coloring going on.
Amy got steak on a stick.
I got ribs! Such a nice change from pizza and pasta.
We found a crazy skinny alley.
Of course some gelato before bed.
