Mc Donald's conquers the land of the Godfather

Yes, McDonald's has arrived in Sicily, in NorthWestern Sicily precisely. There is one in Palermo, Trapani and Castelvetrano. It opened amidst a bit of controversy ... many people were angry, others were happy... but after many years things have calmed down and you find many Sicilians, and tourists at the various McDonald's. 

Trapani .... is it on the map?

Trapani is a port city on the North-Western coast of Sicily. It's located right at the left tip of the island. As you know Sicily has three tips .... the TRINACRIA. 

The city is famous for its sea, wind and .... SALT, as you can see from the picture below. It is also known for its coral. As well as its food. In Trapani you can find rianata, a pizza typical of this area; the famous Pesto Trapanese; arancine, cassata, cannoli and so on.

I ran out of salt so I went straight to the Saline (the salt ponds).

This is the sea coast of Trapani.
