Sicily, Italy and Mount Etna Volcano

Just returned from a week in Catania, Sicily, Italy.
 

Stayed in the heart of Catania, at an elegant mansion of the first 900, carefully transformed into a charming Bed & Breakfast.

 
This was our room

Explored Catania and surrounding area by foot, bus, train, and metro.

Saw some interesting sights.  A man with the world on his shoulders all painted in gold.

Visited Taromina after Etna erupted and saw volcanic ash.

...And back to Malta.
