Off to Taormina

We caught a late morning train to Taormina, about an hour north of Catania. Got to our B&B for the next two nights about 1pm.

Survived a brief scare, after dropped by the taxi. I realized I did not have my phone, it was in the back seat. Several calls from Sue's phone caught the Taxi driver's attention, and she ran it right back! Whew!

We found a Laundromat nearby, just above the main street, Corso Umberto. Put in our clothes, hopped down the stairs (steep hillside town) then back up for the dryer. Repeat, rinse.

Later we joined the crowds walking the Corso, late afternoon meal.

It was an overcast, foggy day. No views of Mt Etna. We can now see the mountain's outline through the thinning clouds.Read more
