Day 29 Fri 18 Oct Noto- Gallina nr Avola

Day 29 Friday 18 October
Leaving our quiet small beach with some traffic noise ( no more than at home )
Long drive from La Spiagatta ( with its very tired shower block, no toilet lids 🙁 but great value 50c showers)  to Noto ,a UNESCO Baroque beautiful town , wonderful golden  coloured  limestone , we found a large free car park near the old town opposite a cafe and garage and made our way to the Main Street , we paid €5 euros to tour the Palazzo Ducato Hall of Mirrors ,wrap around terrace for views over the roof tops and the small theatre founded by an Italian soprano just down the road.

We stepped into one of the churches and asked the guide why 50 churches in such a  small area , after the earthquake ,  commissioning the building a church became a status symbol for noble families .
We drove on to Campeggio Sabbione on the coast near  Avola ACSI card accepted , new shower block , terraced ,  beautifully cultivated botanical gardens, very clean , recycling bins at every level .Bar and shop closed for low season. Bitten by mozzies the first evening as we didn't close up early enough and Andy spent some time showing them the door .The sound of  the sea took our mind off the pending Brexit vote tomorrow
