And more pictures! Mount Etna

Going back further, here's some pictures from shortly after we arrived in Sicily. The first is a view of Mount Etna from the balcony of our hotel room. It looks a little like its erupting, but most of that is just clouds. But some of it is steam from the craters.

And from up near the summit, here is a view back down towards the towns of the coast, with some lava formations in the foreground. It was difficult to take pictures that day... very cold and cloudy at the top, and the lava is so black that it doesn't look like much in photos.
