LIAS was just invited to Sicily to for a week of adventure, and damn did it surpass the bill of expectations. Sure it’s got all you’ve heard: copious crime (including being victimized by filthy pickpockets), culinary delicacies from sea to land to pasta to pastry, mafiosos running the government (mafiosos running everything, actually), thriving urban culture, ancient ruins, remote villages of mindblowing beauty… hell, you’ve even got their president Silvio Berlusconi’s antics making Bill Clinton look like more of a eunuch than Karl Rove at a Boy Scout jamboree.
