Sicily Guide Italy SICILY CITIES GUIDES Catania Palermo Ragusa Siracusa Taormina Directories of Web Sites Sicily Italy Sicily Hotels Sicily Guide Sicily is an island full of strong contrasts, a land rich in history and culture, lively, enticing cities of art, ancient fishermen’s villages where time seems to have come to a standstill and amazing natural wonders, beautiful beaches and islands where you can relax surrounded by crystal clear waters. The island is a crossroads for populations who were completely different from one another, who have all left permanent traces of themselves in the island’s culture. Art and Culture Through the centuries, Sicily has been rules by the Greeks, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, Swabians and Spanish, who all built cities and changes the people’s habits and traditions each time they were conquered and taken over. Visitors to Sicily’s cities today can still see the ancient Greek-Roman buildings, the easily recognizable Arabic-Norman fortresses, the imposing Baroque style buildings, and the churches with their amazing interiors covered in Byzantine mosaics such as the famous Palatine Chapel in Palermo , and many others too. The Greek-origin cities are mostly on the west side of the island, where we can find Selinunte, Segesta, Siracusa and Agrigento, with its fantastic Valley of Temples. Architecturally speaking, Eastern Sicily is much more influenced by the Sicilian Baroque style, used to build monuments and buildings after the terrible earthquake of 1693. The worst hit area was Val di Noto, which was completely rebuilt at the end of the 17th century. The area includes the cities of Ragusa , Modica , Scicli , Ispica and Noto , wonderful “stone gardens” that are remains of the Sicilian Baroque ear and which are included in UNESCO’S prestigious World Heritage List . The island has some other fabulous towns to visit, such as Taormina , the “pearl of the Ionian Sea”, Enna, “Sicily’s belly button”, Piazza Armerina, Caltagirone “the ceramic town” and Catania , with its Baroque palaces in black and white and its irresistible nightlife. Nature and Relaxation Sicily is fascinating for its thousands of years of history and for its cities of art but also for the countless natural beauties on the island. Nature here changes deeply, from the majestic sight of Etna to the gently sloping hills, full of olive groves, vineyards and citrus fruit groves, from the fine sandy beaches on the Vendicari Reserve , Pozzallo and Isola Bella to the steep cliffs, the amazing Gole dell’Alcantara and the islands, buzzing or quiet, such as Pantelleria, Ustica, Lipari, Stromboli, Favignana, Salina and Panarea. Food and Drink Sicily’s food is similar to its architecture, a meeting point between East and West: this “contamination” from different cultures has produced daring, successful mixes of tastes that make traditional Sicilian cuisine a fascinating, unique experience for the senses. Fish, the main ingredient used, is prepared in a thousand different ways, mixing it with the unusual, strong aromas of herbs and spices such as mint and wild fennel. Sicilian cakes, from cassata to frutta martorana, deserve a special mention, and so does the island’s wines, especially Nero d’Avola, a quality wine that is rapidly becoming famous overseas too.

Disney Vacation Club by resale - the way to go! Apr 03 '00 My family and I have been going to Disney World for the last 15 years. My parents have been coming with us for the last 3 years. Its great to go as a big group. In order to accommodate the 7 of us, we have always gotten 2 rooms at the hotels we have stayed at. My parents decided to do it right and decided to buy into the Disney Vacation Club. I did some of the research for them, and they did some as well. They called and talked with a Disney representative. They were told how Old Key West was sold out. If they wanted to buy in, they would have to buy at the Boardwalk. Cost would be about $67 a point. After my research, I told them that it wasn't a good idea to buy at Boardwalk. The room point rate for a week was a few points higher, but worse, the annual maintenance fee was about $1 per point higher at Boardwalk than at OKW. My suggestion was to buy through the resale market and buy at OKW. I did further research and found out there are basically two real estate agencies handling the DVC resales. The Timeshare Store and ATimeShare are the two agencies available. They are both EXTREMELY helpful and informative. They could sell me whatever they had available in their inventory. They obviously can only sell what they are given to be representatives of. They ended up buying through ATimeShare. Not because of what the dealer did, but more because of what the agent had available. ATimeShare had the number of points my parents were interested in at the price they were willing to pay. If the Timeshare Store had what my folks had wanted, they would have been just as satisfied buying through them too. I won't tell you what they paid, but I will say it was QUITE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS than $67/point! The point of this discussion is if you are interested in buying into the DVC, seriously consider the resale market. Once you own the points, Disney treats you just as if you were the original owners, but you saved BIG $$$ doing it!
