We had a wild ferry ride from Naples to Taormina, Sicily. The sea was turbulent for the first few hours. The ferry would be a great place to meet men. There must have been 10 men for every woman on the boat. It seemed very odd. It is like a small cruise ship with a casino, wine bar, restaurants, dancing. Thank goodness Bob was there to protect our honor. We arrived in Sicily to a full rainbow over Palermo. Since it was rush hour traffic was crazy. There appears to be no such thing as official lanes - it's just how many cars can cram into the space. But no one is vicious or angry. Taormina is in sight of Mt. Etna which was shrouded in the blackest, lowest clouds I have ever seen. Our hotel is gorgeous and we have plenty of space. Tonight we will be having appetizers in the lobby in front of the fireplace (it was sunny but chilly) We took the bus to Castelmola - a town of stone built on the top of a mountain.

I've been on one of those ferries in Sicily. I thought I'd barf. Great way to meet men, my foot! :)I'm so glad you're having fun. It looks stunning!
Isn't reality just too disappointing? Today K and I had a cab driver honk and wave and smile at us. Please don't be cruel like Bob and say he just wanted us to get out of the road.
