Sicilia!

This June I'm going to Sicily for 10 days with my mom, Uncle Joe, and Aunt Chris, on a tour with a Sicilian heritage group called Arba Sicula. I'll probably be the only person under 50 on the trip, but that's fine by me - I'm going to the motherland! Sicily is one of the only places in Italy I didn't get to see when I was studying abroad in Fall 2008, and I've been dying to go pretty much since I knew my mother's side of the family was Sicilian. (So, 1996?)

On the trip, we're almost circling the island of Sicily. We'll be visiting Palermo, Cefalù, Marsala, Agrigento, Siracusa, Catania, Messina, and Taormina, in addition to smaller places en route or on day trips. Since I don't know where any of these places are either (except for Palermo), I made a google map marking all the places we'll be visiting:
