THOUGHTFUL TUESDAY

 

Yesterday we travelled to Mount Etna and a medieval town called Taomina. Our ship was docked in Messina, Sicily.

DH was disappointed that Mount Etna did not have an eruption however we did get ash on the roadways because it had spewed lave the day before. Several roads were closed because of a collapsed bridge as well as a rock slide. We got to 2000 feet on Mount Etna. We had lunch in the medieval town of Taomina which was once occupied by the Greeks.
