Sicily is closed on Sunday

I knew that the trains wouldn't be running but I didn't realise that there would be no buses either. So I decided to hitch a lift, I was actually aiming for Gela, but Sicilians don't pick up sweaty old men. I began walking and hitching but eventually gave up trying to get a lift. It's funny because in Albania I would have had a lift within a few minutes and in Greece it might have taken 15 mins.
So I've ended up walking from Ragusa to Comiso which is where I am now. It was a bit more than 10 miles which is hard with a rucksack, on the plus side though it was mostly downhill.
