Trip to Palermo 02JAN07 By: Caleb

Today I went to Palermo from Catania. We went the shortcut. When we got there, we had trouble with traffic. But it was cool. We saw a clown juggling bowling pins. Then we went to see skeletons over one hundred years old. There was more than a hundred of them. Next we went to a very old church. After that it started to rain. We took a drive to an Opera House and then we saw a rainbow on mainland. We went under about 74 tunnels. Then we went to Taormina and went up, up, up, up, to the top. The End.


These pictures were taken by my mom of the rainbow and looking across the Straits of Messina to mainland Italy.

Palermo




These are some pictures I took in Palermo of the cathedral and opera house. I will write more about the trip later.

Palermo Catacombe dei Cappuccini



Here are two postcards from the catacombs in Palermo. We pretended it was like the Pirates of the Caribbean so it wasn't too scary.
