During our tour of Sicily we did a two nights stop at a lovely homestay Agriturismo Conte Ruggero in what seemed like the middle of nowhere, but a short ride from Mount Etna. We weren’t really expecting much in terms of events that evening, but we ventured into the nearby local town and were surprised to find some lively local Easter events parading through the streets with Maria and Jesus.
Our lovely stone home farm B&B…
From which we set out to the nearby town…
And noticed people are gathering up in the local church…
Awaiting the beginning of the ceremony…
If you want to get a feel for the festivities, I have some video captures:

Fun unexpected local adventure at the heart of Sicily.
