#239: Sicily and I – Etna and the surrounding area

Catania I'm less enthusiastic, and I especially recommend the La Macceriella the fish market to eat. Before that you should definitely go to the bar next to it to drink an aperitif. I have rarely eaten so good fish. And the Dopo Teatro near the opera is mainly visited late at night by the Italians, to still eat fast Panini, everything is freshly grilled and fried the sausages over the pistachio rissoles. And coffee you can drink everywhere anyway, that will probably be the, what will be the worst, when I come back.

From Etna we have unfortunately seen little, as the road was closed at Etna South, due to heavy levels of snowfall and the other road was passable only with snow chains, what now not so was one of our standard equipment and I also wanted to buy any from street vendors. Nevertheless, we are stopped on the street and climbed into the lava, to collect stones. And if you go to Taormina, you can get beautiful views of Mount Etna, when he comes out again from the fog. The Etna is the only mountain world – allegedly – a ski slope with views of the sea.

Taormina is really a beautiful place and must, especially in the early summer of Isola Bella a hotspot Sicily be. In the Greek theater there are operas and the view is absolutely stunning and was also one of those moments, where you can breathe deeply and let yourself fall in a moment of tranquility and beauty of the moment.
