HOMEWARD BOUND

On our way up Mt Etna

And there she is

Ahhh we missed this bus by 10 minutes

So much snow


Heading back down through more lava fields

The castle in Catarina

Exploring town

The gorgeous Cathedral

And plaza


Casa di Loreto

City gates

Coming back to find me

The markets

Driving on to the town of  Taormina

Pity the views are so hazy

Love all the heads

You can even buy them! We didn't

Exploring town



Stopping for refreshments

Heading into the misty mountains


Love all the hilltop towns


Decide to explore Troina

Explore despite the rain






Camp at the town of Sperlinga

Rock houses

Climbing up to the Castle





Finally drive through the mountains

And on to Monreal

Looking down at Palermo

Inside the magnificent Monreal Cathedral





Back in Palermo exploring the Normandy Palace



And the stunning Capella Palatina




More food at Mercato Ballaro

Time to leave Palermo

Arriving in Genoa

The lovely town of Bassano del Grappa

With our very own tour guide


Back to Austria
