which seem pretty interesting. E mentioned the volcano and the weekend festivals when she called the other day. Also while googling, a random fiat panda photo:
Several nights ago the volcano was erupting and I got to see it. VERY cool, kind of like a red water fountain/geiser. We also can see the volcano from our balcony. The castle (not aci costello, the one you can see in front of the volcano) is kind of blocked by another apartment building, but we can see it from almost every road we drive on. I toured it today as part of a spouse's orientation class. Very interesting history, and they still hold some of their town hall meetings there. we see vendors on the side of the road like in the 4th picture all the time. Eventually I will be buying all of my produce and perishables from the local markets as it is fresher and cheaper. So far I have contacts for are local clover honey and local olive oil, and the lady who knows when every town's market is and where to go for what. cannot wait. the german pillbox is also visible from one of the roads we use often. I recognized the graffitti, lol.
pictures will come, once we move in and get internet on our computer.
worry wart cousin here: don't buy local honey for the kid until he's a year old-best to stick with bottled american honey that's been pasteurized (anything you buy from the american store would be safe) as local stuff can contain botalism and that can kill him if he's under a year old. Signed, the cousin who's worked in places where kids have died from local honey!
well, dying from honey probably wouldn't be good. I sort of remember reading about honey and babies. How about adults? I also read that it is good to get honey from local bees if you have pollen allergies. True or silly?

Nice little car. Almost looks like the GEO! I like the looks of that better than a motorcycle. Anxiously waiting for pics of baby and surroundings.
