In addition to seeing a lot of wall-mounted shrines in Palermo (as I mentioned yesterday) I spotted some larger ones as well, like this one on the side of Chiesa di Sant'Antonio Abate. Walking around Palermo was a visual delight - there was something interesting/new/photo-worthy at every turn. If I'd stopped to think about it, it would have been overwhelming. Instead I just kept looking, kept shooting, kept immersing myself in everything the city and its residents had to offer.
As I write this, I've been home for eight days; I'm still writing in my travel journal every day because so many things happened on the trip that I couldn't get it all written down in real time. That journal started out real organized, with things documented chronologically. It quickly descended in chaos, which I tell myself will make it more interesting for future reader(s) who will be treated (if that's the right term?) to a stream-of-consciousness telling of Important Things I Just Remembered.
