Sarah’s family finally arrived after a few doubts earlier in the week. We picked them up from Palermo airport in the pouring rain and drove the two hire cars back to Cefalu and their villa.
We had good weather for the week and travelled to Mount Etna on New years day, where we sledged in the snow, and Matt, Audrey and Gerry took the cable car higher up the mountain. The scenery was fantastic with all the snow.
Two days later Etna erupted quite violently, Near MissWent walking in the mountains again in the snow at Piano Cervi on a route we had previously walked in October, it looked very different in it’s winter clothes.
In the afternoon the boy’s without Rob went in the sea, they looked frozen but very brave.
Log fires blazing every night and a good time was had by all.
Sorry to see them go back to the UK.
