and from 15.00 pm to 18.30 pm "

All through Italy you will find these hours. The big reason is that the biggest meal for Italians is lunch. That actually get together as a family and eat together. Quite a concept that I wish Americans would adopt. It is a great country I must say. I have been in Sicily for one year...two more to go!!! They also practically close down in August. I tell you it was interesting to find a gas station open at all in Italy during the month. close call one time that won't happen again since I know better for next August.
