This evening (after I took a nap that I never got woken up from), we went to dinner with Maurizio and his sons and wife. We went to this festival downtown somewhere and walked around the shopping booths and ate at a fantastic pizza place.
We didn't get any gelato or ice yet, but I'm sure it's coming. I've heard rumors that one of the people we'll be staying with next owns a gelato shop!
Anyway, I'm off to take a sleeping pill and read for awhile. Up in 8 hours to go see Mount Etna (a VOLCANO!!!)! Then we'll eat lunch and drive to Fontane to stay with the other part of the family. There is internet there, but it's ethernet, so we'll see how accessible it is. Whatever! I'm not horribly worried about staying in touch. This is already more than I expected. But I'm on vacation, so I don't want to be doing my translation and such. I had my vacation approved, so no worries. :-P
My Uncle Tino said that a few years ago when Etna erupted, he would sit on his porch and watch the lava pour down the sides. Reallly cool!
Have a photo of Mount Etna, and I'll be in contact sometime soon! <3
