July 1st 2011
My last day in Salemi. I am so sad, I do not want to leave!!!!!! I love it here, I love the weather, the people, the food, everything. When I left my home in the states I was afraid I would get home sick. But in reality Sicily became my new home and now I don’t want to leave. Today we had to do a very sad thing, we had to back fill LCZ. It was a very sad thing to fill the hole we had worked so hard, on for some many days, back up with the same dirt we had removed so carefully. After back filling we all packed up and went to the beach one last time. We decided to go to a new beach, it had small stones instead of sand. It was a very beautiful beach and the water was just the right temperature. At one point we took a walk around the beach and found two old Nazi bunkers, left from WWII. After the beach we went back and me and Leah packed our bags, and cleaned our room. It was so sad to see the room so empty. After packing was our last Deno dinner, then chores. After chores all of us got cleaned up and went out for drinks one last time. It was so much fun, I am really going to miss the people I met on the school. I stayed up all night and then at 4am on July 2nd I grabbed my bag, said my tearful goodbyes. I then got in the very same car that brought me to this beautiful place and drove off to the airport. I am never going to forget the experience I had on this trip, and although I kills me to leave this place I know I will be back. I don’t know when or how, but I know this is not the end of my adventures in Sicily.
