It constitutes an autonomous Region of Italy, along with surrounding minor islands, officially referred to as Regione Siciliana (in Italian, Sicilian Region) .<br /><br />Just in case viewers think that when I write "Italian" drivers and speed, I do know that Sicily is a "region/province" of Italy, so taxi drivers in Racalmuto would be pretty much akin to the same in Naples, Rome or Milan. Speed in paramount.<br />ColinHuggybearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517411617275367396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897600511871114781.post-81595676592667721532016-07-26T16:53:58.455-07:002016-07-26T16:53:58.455-07:00Italian drivers???

Well only if the buildings retain their authenticity - don't want the US style bloody skyscrapers which have taken over the Western and Eastern cities in the world - Glass monstrosities!! <br />The fountain looks quite in place as far as I can see. I am sure it is QUITE functional.<br />Very interesting tour of Sicily and thanks Gosia. It is a place that I would never have visited in my travel days.<br />Cheers<br />Colin Huggybearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517411617275367396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897600511871114781.post-27720822931004796512016-07-26T15:59:20.411-07:002016-07-26T15:59:20.411-07:00Good to see the fountain still works.
