Thursday 3 June, Siracusa to Etna via Pantilica

Things that don't happen at home #5 Showers don't have heavy external bolts. Therefore one's two year old, who has been given the very important job of holding one's towel, is not routinely tempted to imprison one within the confines of the cubicle until she deems the time is right to release you.

Chloe has adapted the holiday song to meet her own requirements, and rather than wishing violence upon inanimate objects, she happily chants 'We'll be chopping Maddie's head off when we come' much to the chagrin of her delicate sister.

Her delicate sister, who, to my shame given the update of 2 days ago, can now ride a bike without stabilisers!

By the way, Pantilica, a beautiful gorge with thousands of ancient tombs honeycombing the walls, is #1 on my list of Sites To Revisit Without Children. And Sites To Revisit Not At Midday. And Sites To Revisit With An Expensive And Efficient Satellite Navigation Device To Negate The Incompetent Efforts Of Italian Signage Locators.
