Enzo then drove us back down into the traffic of Palermo. He parked by the Teatro Massimo and we were given an hour on our own. We walked through the nearby open market, stretched for blocks down a narrow street. Still having a few minutes left, we took a closer look at the 19th century Teatro Massimo, recently reopened after 25 year's of restoration. It is one of the largest opera houses in Europe.
The bus then took us to a pizzeria in Mondello for lunch. Mondello is a pretty beach resort only a few miles up the coast from Palermo. It faces the west side of Mount Pelegrino, as opposed to the east side we could see in the distance from Trabia. We had nearly an hour after lunch to stroll the beach before boarding the bus. We were back at our hotel about 4:15. We enjoyed a leisurely evening with another excellent (and large) dinner at the hotel.
