Wow! Sicily sea water is really cold.
A judge here found a woman innocent of a money-laundering charge. His reasoning was that women are far too stupid to engage in such a complex activity.
We've worked our way down from Rome, visiting Sorrento, Positano, Paestrun, Tropea, Schiller, Salerno, Messina, Naxos, Catania, Siracusa, Etna...I love Italy and the food...we eat like pigs and lose weight with the walking...
I'm in a sticky-fingers internet point...the boat back in Rome should have a more reliable connection...
More later...Oh! If you say a-shoo-ga-ma-no in Sicily, they usually hand you a beach towel.

Never go anywhere without your towel - you know the rules..
Glad to hear you are enjoying yourself. Etna is quiet these days, I take it?

Have a great holiday.
I hope we are also going to be spoilt with the pictures - especially those in Croatia.!!
Kind regards
