What's Cool About Palermo

Besides the obvious, here are some cool, unconventional things I love about Palermo:

It’s a mixture of history, beauty, ugliness, chaos and wonderfully good looking men! Eye candy is in full abundance here, however, their underwear judgment puzzles me...I really get a kick out of the designs (actually, this applies to all of Italy I have visited)


(Yes, that says "BOMB")

Some of the street signs are also in Arabic


Designs in architecture that may be hidden to the average eye (hard to see when it's small, but this is a dragon catching the rays of the sun)



Graffiti



Construction signs: "Shoveling Sh*t" is what I like to call this one


When I first saw this sign I couldn’t help but laugh. It reminded me of my life back in New Jersey, "shoveling sh*t"… at the job, with other people, etc. It fit the tone perfectly and reminded me why I was on vacation in the first place...

Ah, this is going to be a great trip!
