    🎉Thank you, guys! Like this old town and spirit! But missed Portugal or Spain more,because it's more green and flowers).

      The song is called "Do You Ever Wonder" by Sleepaway Camp. We use Epidemic Sound, but the song can be found on Spotify as well. Thanks for watching :)

    Thanks for this VLOG. You have so expertly captured Ortigia. and have showcased its beauty and down to earth brilliance. We are going later in the year and your VLOG has been of immense help in both understanding the place and also planning things to do. Thanks again.

    Lived 6 monhs outside of Catania. Found the people not that friendly. Now for Syracuse. People was friendly. Food was out of this World. Thank God I was able to get out of Catania. Syracuse was and still is BEAUTIFUL!

      We really loved the small town feel of Syracuse, especially Ortigia. We felt we could spend at least 2-4 weeks there no problem. Catania was a big city feel, but still had the charm in the old district. Both places so different. Thanks so much for watching 🙏, we appreciate it! Cheers 🍻 Chris and Jim

    Awesome video guys! Also, do you use the automated chapter UA-cam places in? We have ours turned on but unfortunately the chapters don't generate ☹️

    • @midlifetravelbug
      @midlifetravelbug  8 місяців тому

      Thanks guys ❤️ Yes, we let UA-cam do the chapters, but notice it takes a while for that to appear. I will have to go back and look if it's on all the videos 🤔

    Hi love your videos. In Ortigia.. how did you make sure that you would be alowed to have your car in Ortigia. Thank you 😊

    • @midlifetravelbug
      @midlifetravelbug  7 місяців тому +1

      Thank you so much 😊 We just found street parking outside our Airbnb and the owner said it was free. Otherwise there are paid parking places available if we could not find street parking. Hopefully this helps! Cheers 🍻 Chris and Jim 😀

    Your video is excellent! Thank you!
    Did you rent the car for the 3 weeks? And did you rent it at the airport or on line before ? 😊

    • @midlifetravelbug
      @midlifetravelbug  8 місяців тому +1

      Thank you 🙏 we rented for approximately 11 nights not counting our time in Catania and Palermo. I booked online with Expedia then picked up at the airport and dropped off at the Palermo airport on our way out. It’s good to book early and find cheaper prices, plus Expedia usually has free cancellation. Hopefully this helps! Cheers Chris and Jim 🥂

    What was the name of the place you got the charcuterie board?

    • @midlifetravelbug
      @midlifetravelbug  7 місяців тому

      It was where they have the daily market in Ortigia, right across from the long stand where they sell fish and there is a really loud guy selling the fish. If you enter the market from the water side, its about 3-4 places in on the right side. Can't miss it. Pretty close to here: maps.app.goo.gl/XyA5nkUB3nGZu8sU8
