Wife's family is from there originally, we're buying a villa there this winter for our vacation home. I absolutely love Sicily. Love it.
My dad's family is originally from Baucina, a small town in the mountains near Palermo. We went through there while on vacation, and pretty much everyone closed their doors and ran away from us. Seemed like they were just scared of tourists, it was actually kind of funny.
I would love to go back though, we drove from Palermo to Agrigento, then over to Catania (stayed in Taormina), and down to Siracusa for a day, during a week long trip. Went to Malta afterwards, which was pretty cool too, though pretty touristy.
