Which means random people in random parts of the ...

... my own way back. So then when the buses that I could have taken began passing me, I thought, nah this is pretty good. I'm enjoying myself, I'll just grab the next bus at the next stop. I bet I walked 3 miles with that attitude. Which normally I would expect cheers and praise. BUT. I'm in Sicily. In Italy. I'm a girl. With a cake-load of new makeup. And alllll by myself. Walking down the teeny side (sometimes no side) of a curvy, country highway/road. I wish I was fund raising for every ...

... disappointment we headed back to our hostel as the rain started to fall. It looks like we haven't left the bad weather behind us, yet. <br><br>We checked the weather report for the next few days and they weren't looking to good, with that in mind we decided to book our train ticket and head to Rome on the next overnight train. <br><br>We had one last day in Sicily and the weather looked like we could step out of doors. We headed straight for the bus ...

Wahrscheinlich war dem guide die fahrkarte zu teuer und so war sein reingewinn grösser.<br><br><br>nach 3 tage in catania waren wir doch froh, diese stadt verlassen zu können.....wir freuten uns auf das neue Ziel 'Taormina', wo es eine schöne altstadt auf einem hügel gebe und dazu ein spezieller strand mit der isola bella.<br><br>also das nächst beste hostal im internet gebucht und am nächsten tag mit bus und zug richtung taormina....... :-)<br><br><br>
