First day in Erice, Silicy

We left sunny England early Wed. morning (Apr 22) and were greeted with rain 3 hours later upon our arrival in Sicily.   After becoming completely drenched running to our rental car at the airport, we headed off to find our accommodation in Erice, a walled medieval town perched some 2,500 feet above the coastal city of Trapani.   

The day we arrived, the streets were filled with mist/fog as seen in these photographs. Whenever we walked pass this one particular street, we would see this dog, regally sitting and observing the activities on the street below from this rooftop balcony.  We were not alone; many people stopped to take his photo and I think he rather enjoyed all the attention!!
