Mount Etna out our window

Mascali, IT (Mount Etna)

January 4, 2012. We're in Mascali, Sicily (Italy) and loving it. A very long trip here, some complications as our car is slowly falling apart, but this is the view from our window of Mount Etna, the largest active volcano in Europe. Giuseppe and his wife Aura are wonderful hosts, who have a plantation and hotel here in Mascali. On the way here, we thought we were going to lose the driver's door to our car, but got that fixed. Now our muffler went out and we have to get it fixed before we go home. The ferry here was an interesting experience. We didn't get much sleep, as the kids slept in the stairway and the adults tried sleeping in a room with a symphony of snoring and cell phone conversations.
