So on our way home, we made one last stop at a small town (sorry forgot the name of this one...) which has the "twin cathedral" of the one in Palermo. It was said that the Norman King commissioned both, but let one of his bishops design the one in Palermo (said to have the fancy outside) and he would design this one (with the fancy inside). So you know the drill by now, through a ton of gold leaf on the walls, depict a few bible stories, and through up a humongous J-Dawg on the wall. Also it was brought to my attention (yes you mom) that J-Dawg isn't the most obvious nickname. Jesus. If it wasn't clear. The Normans really enjoyed big pictures of Jesus. You can see just how elaborate the walls and even the ceiling were. I also took a pano looking back at Palermo just before we left.
So the story about how we got home deserves its own post, but let's just say that the selfie above is my guess as to why it happened... My bad.
