Messina, Taormina & Stromboli on Sicily

 

After arriving at Messina we went to Taormina to see the sights.  On the left are the roads getting up to Taormina and on the right is Mount Etna in the clouds.

  

Shopping in Taormina                                                                Looking to the south over the Mediterranean

Taking the tram down to the beach in Taormina

Leaving the port of Messina the Madonna della Lettera 

  

Stromboli - As we left Messina the captain was able to take us by Stromboli so see the active volcano. Unfortunately we didn't see much. The dark area in the second picture was the eruption from 10 days before. There was nothing going on the day we went by.
