Lipari
Today
it rained! Ok, we have to have some
rain on the trip :)
We
wiled away the hours reading and snoozing and then when the rain
abated, we went into Lipari in this afternoon to walk the old town
and have a look at the castle. Five churches and a museum (all closed
like the rest of the town on Sunday, but fun to walk around.) On the
way back we stopped for gelato and the rain has cleared the skies of
the haze so we could see the top of Stromboli, the nearby volcano,
puffing away. Tomorrow we've booked a trip to this island including
a 5 hour walk to the summit and night time to see the lava flow into
the ocean.
