Abandoned api

An "api" is a commonly found mode of transportation here in Sicily.  Think of a small (very small) one or two person truck with  an engine about the size of one on a motorcycle (not one of the big motorcycles .... just an everyday, run-about motorcycle).  The word "api" in Italian means "bees" .... quite apt since it's engine hums as it goes along its way.

These are found everywhere ... produce sellers fill the back and travel the streets of the towns advertising their wares, repairmen visit their clients ... apis crowd the streets of many Sicilian towns.
