A Day in Palermo

So my attempts to catch up with the recent Italy trip have failed.  Too much stuff to do now (papers, meetings, sleeping...) to write too much.  Instead, here are some memories of a day spent in Palermo, Sicily with a few colleagues I met in the Erice school.  Palermo was quite an intense place, but was rewarding to explore, especially all of these incredible churches.  Take this one, the Capella Palatine, incorporating a wide range of artchitectural and visual influences, with a whole lot of gold leaf.
