CHASING RAINBOWS

It has been awhile, but not much newsworthy has happened, so I waited till I had some nice pictures. The pictures from this last weekend have been incredible, especially the clouds and rainbows. Also take note dirty old men; we have had topless women on our beach all week. I think they are Czech or German tourists, but since there are so few people on the beach, it is noticeable. The water has been warm and clear and full of waves. We know that heralds bad weather, but we took advantage of the hot mornings and swam everyday before the rains. This weekend has been full of lightening strikes and storms. I wish I could get a picture of them, but I get mostly black-I’m not fast enough.
This was also the weekend of the go-cart races in Sciacca, so we went down today for an hour to watch the grown ups act like little kids. Quite a bit of money is spent on this sport too. I couldn’t believe the set-ups, the tool kits, the helmets and uniforms. But it is still loud smelly little cars going round and round a course. We beat off some little kids and got a front place position in a spot with 2 corners so if anyone spun out, we could see it. No such luck. But the spot was good for a few decent shots. As we were leaving out of complete boredom after only 2 races, we noticed a beautiful rainbow and chased it around town, down to the port and San Michele. We found each other at the end of the rainbow so of course took dorky pictures of that. Enjoy!
