In August 2023, I was in Sicily. There, we got on a boat for a one day trip around Favignana Island.

While most people rushed for the spots under the sun, Ceci and I searched and found two spots in the shade. We found a table with some chairs in the back of the boat, with no direct sunlight. To me, the best available spot: perfect for me to draw and for Ceci to read.

For lunch we ate a wonderful pasta and, diving underwater with a mask, holding my breath, I saw how people looked faceless when swimming with their heads out of water.
