Enough snow.  Back to sunny Sicily.

Monreale Cathedral really blew my mind. Built by Arab architects for the Norman conquerers of Sicily, it's a Catholic cathedral that looks Byzantine. The walls are covered with mosaics of Bible stories, and all that glitters really is gold.  If you didn't know you were in Sicily you'd think you were in Istanbul.
