Catania (Take Two)

Today was what I would have to classify as a little nuts. Well, traffic wise anyway. As I mentioned previously, Luis and I went back to Catania today to an art show where we thought we might find some art to buy for the house...and we did, sort of. We didn't know that the art at the show was going to be from world known artists and that the pieces would cost a few thousand dollars each. Needless to say, we did not purchase any pieces to take home. After the art show we went to a small Gelateria and ate some icecream and relaxed a bit. I had Strawberry for the first time. Man I could have eaten that all day! Then we started heading home and I spotted a stand on the side of the road with sculptures for the garden and pedestals and such. So I swung off the road into a parking spot across the street and we ran over to check it out. We ended up buying a pedestal and a statue to go on top and a planter bowl with grapes on it...all absolutely stunning. The statue is on the pedestal in the garden and the bowl is on the front porch so that I can put some flowers into it. Love them....Anyway, overall I'd say it was a successful day, because even though we didn't get any art for the wall, we did manage to find some for the garden. :o)
