Saturday we went to the market in Catania. It runs every day of the week. You can get pretty much anything you want - there is a fresh fish market and then the regular market with food, clothing and various other items. Saturday is obviously a very busy day. I have not been during the week, but definitely plan on it soon. Everything that we bought there was delicious!
Here are a couple of pics of the market. There were quite a few others (Brad had the camera) of the fish w/heads on or off and sitting beside the fish for the spada (swordfish). I never liked swordfish until I came here. I really like it now. They slice it pretty thin. The fresh tuna is incredible too. The other somewhat disturbing pics were of the fresh meat - all kinds of stuff literally 'hanging around'. Mostly I still stick to veges, pastas, and FRESH seafood - with an occasional chicken or veal cutlet...

Ms. Theresa & Mr. Brad!
I have been trying to figure out how to get in touch with you guys and then remembered about your blog! Wow, where to begin? First, thank you both so very very much for your support this summer! You have played such a vital role in the beginning of my ministry abroad and I pray that God continues to bless you in an absolutely incredible way! I am sorry that I was unable to make it down there for a visit. I was unable to make definite contact with you guys, but maybe I'll get another chance to visit when I get back to Germany! What is the best way to get in touch with you guys? Thanks again! You guys are incredible!
-Cameron
