The Hunchback?

What a wonderful final day in Sicily. Even tho you spent most of your time in a tongue-twister of a village.... Scicli, Sicily? Congrats on renting a car and really maximizing your discovery of this fabulous area! I'm going to miss reading about your daily adventures.

No, not the hunchback. An interesting name, though. Many of the great Italian authors and poets of the 19th and 20th centuries were Sicilian. The pronunciation of Scicli was a bit of a surprise to me. I was expecting 'shee-klee, but instead they say 'shee-lyee.
