it will keep its Rome license plates, that's how they do it here, and I'm not complaining.

reaping the rewards
incredible

La Sicilia

Reggio Calabria
looking back at the mainland while taking the ferry to Sicily, August 2, 2005

Messina - Sicily
they loaded our train onto this ferry and we crossed the straight - some day there might be a bridge...might

Scicli - southern sicily
Nicole and Stephen live here - in the province of Ragusa - this is from their apartment looking onto the square below

Scicli
in piazza italia, looking up at San Matteo

twilight
nicole in Scicli, below San Matteo. she graciously showed me around for the week

nicole and I in Scicli
hot and dry - but this little village definitly has some character

Cinzia and Manuele
some of their friends, here in the Tribunale's main office

rococo
this area of sicily is full of this kind of architecture

church and cliffs
up until 50-some years ago, some people even still lived in these ancient cave dwellings

local architecture
Scicli, Modica and Ragusa are all well-known for being rich in Rococo art

if you keep making that face...
cute, eh?

piazza
the square below their apartment - at night everything is lit up, also San Matteo up on the hill

in piazza
we spent a lot of time just hanging out in this square, many of their friends either work or come to the bar,Black Stone

Verena and Cristian
friends from Bolzano who were vacationing in sicily, we arranged to meet here in Catania

Peter, Nicole and i
Peter is Stephen's uncle and my landlord - he was doing some work in Catania and met us as well that night

coast north of Catania
a beautiful area, we camped here with Verena and Cristian

Mt. Etna
this volcano is not that far from Catania (the 2nd city of Sicily)

Etna
you can see it smoking - it's europe's largest (and most active?) volcano

on Etna
so what did we do...we decided to climb it! that is, drive, then take a gondola, then finally hike

Verena and i on Etna, Aug. 2005
this is as close as we got to the top - a guide is needed to go futher. already here it was tough to breath,so much ash

one of the creators
there must be around 5 or 6 creators, this one was low enough to visit

peeking over the edge of a creator
unfortunately didn't see any lava, but they were smoking and stunk of sulpher

Nicole and i
below etna - next time we're going back and hiking all the way up - we discovered a way without a guide

josh and nicole on etna
on my first volcano - the last eruption was 90-something...and nothing that day

Mt. Etna
August 2005

on etna

on the moon
seemed like that a bit - black ash everywhere you turned

all of us
even a bit cold up top - around 3,000m. made worse by a wicked wind

etna
it was a nice hike, save for these jeeps going past kicking up all sorts of ash, everyone had a cough before long

more creators
from here you also see down towards Catania and the sea

a bit of color
only in a few places could you see the sulpher effects on the rocks

Ragusa
a day trip from Scicli, only about 1/2 hour in the car - beautiful city, the houses stacked upon each other

ragusa
loved the architecture

in the historic center of ragusa
nicole in the main piazza by the duomo

piazza in Ragusa
sicily, aug. 2005...day 5 I think of the vacation

ragusa
saw the all the old ladies sitting on the bench, couldn't pass on a photo

cannolli
sicily, this about sums it up

day 6...road trip!
never should have made the joke, "hey, how about a coffee...in Palermo!"

on the road to Palermo
4 hours in the car, but was nice to see the country-side. very dry, a lot like eastern MT actually

sunset on the coast near Palermo
one thing you can't find in eastern montana. :)

our accomodations
after arriving in Palermo at 8pm and then going out on the town, this is where we eventually crashed at 4am

port in Palermo
definitely a great city, sandwiched between the mountains and the sea

Palermo, aug. 2005
teatro massimo in piazza verdi

Palermo
the cathedral - amazing!! unfortunately we stayed in the city only about 12 hours - quick trip, Bartelo had to get back

Nicole and her friend Bartelo
our driver - this was his reaction when I said it was time to get back in the car and go home maybe

the beginning of the end
after only an hour on the road...trouble hit

water, we need more water!
one of the countless times we had to add water, a painful process of limping down the highway

please stop for us!
I think maybe 2 cars stopped in the 9 hours we were stranded at different points on the road - bah!

the situation
one of the water hoses broke, this was one of our many "temporary" fix-jobs

Bartelo and nicole
all in all, it was a real bonding experience spending an entire day limping across sicily, one km at a time.

Catania, il duomo
no, it wasn't near our destination of scicli, we had to abandon the car and take the only train...to Catania

nicole, bartelo, josh
in piazza duomo, Catania - we spent the entire night here, below the volcanic elephant (their symbol)

Catania
i was grateful for this 2nd look at catania, a whole different view of it, made me like the city much more

nicole and bartelo
by 5am we were a bit wacky - yes that's a hat made from newspapers

don't touch the dead dog!
not dead actually, he was a stray hanging out in the piazza with us, along with some crazy french guy who wouldn't leave

wiating for the 1st train
eventually the cards came out, played Briscolla till the train at 6am for Siracusa

Bartelo nello stazione di Catania
at this point he is only 12 hours late for work

Siracusa, day 8
but day 3 of the "palermo-coffee run" Here we had a 2 hr. wait for the train to scicli

the duomo in Siracusa
once a greek colony, it was said to be admired by greeks as more beautiful than athens

nicole and i in siracusa
in the piazza at the duomo, stopping yet another coffee

the market in Siracusa
you can buy just about anything here I think

the last train
we finally arrived back in Scicli at noon on Wed. after leaving for Palermo on Monday afternoon!

back in piaza in Scicli
Verena and Cristian came to visit, here we're enjoying a couple of pizzas made by non other than Bartelo!!

Manuele, Gianni, and Nicole
Scicli, Aug. 2005

scicli, august 2005
new friends

San Matteo
we hiked up here the last night, a beautiful and abandoned church

day 9, last day - the beach
my last day, it was only 8km down to Donnalogata on the sea and then we hiked along the coast

southern coast of sicily
we hiked a good couple of hours, over beach and cliffs - loved all the cactus - here is an algave

more cactus
i saw so many kinds of cactus in sicily, really incredible

from the train, leaving sicily
almond trees I think. I took the train to Siracusa again, where I had a night train to Naples to meet Audrey

everyone on the water, getting ready for the big firework display at midnight

sul ponte
with Silvia, Fausto and Andrea - on the bridge which they create for this festival, it spans from Venice to the Giudecca

at sunset
looking back towards Venice from the bridge - it's impressive as it floats on buoies

josh and audrey
we had a little picnic on the giudecca while waiting for the show

the show
this is the main attraction - they set off the fireworks from barges in the lagoon

1 hour of fireworks!
it was incredible!

Kris and Josh at the beginning of our first alps adventure, June 2005

Kris and Marmolada
we stayed here at Lake Fedaia, right below Mt. Marmolada, the highest in the dolomites

La diga
the dam at Lake Fedaia and Marmolada

Lake Fedaia
looking back down from the glacier on Marmolada, only about a 1.5 hr hike up from the lake

Kris on the glacier of Marmolada - we wanted to hike up farther but lacked the equipment - beautiful day though

Kris and josh, day 1 of our 4-day stay in the dolomites

Day 1 - June 2005
another beautiful day, looking back toward Canazai and Sasso Lungo

contemplation
man, those mountains are big

Marmolada
staying at the lake, we were actually fairly close to the peak

Marmolada and Fedaia
the lake was at 2,000m, the peak at 3,300m

room with a view
out our window, up towards Marmolada

looking north
amazing views in every direction

Day 2
we climbed up the hill opposite Marmolada, this is towards the Gruppa Stella and Sasso Lungo

Kris
finally we managed to meet up and do some hiking in the alps, after 9 months of us both living over here

Marmolada
looking back from a distance, a new perspective

Sasso Lungo
and peak in the Dolomites, the views are a dime a dozen up here

cairn and Lake Fedaia
about half way on our hike on day 2

lunch anyone?
not a bad place to rest and eat

more contemplation
these photos really crack me up, we had fun trying to get the timers to work right

stupendo
my favorite photo of the trip, looking at the Gruppa Stella where we would go the next day

our Rifugio
Rifugio Marmolada, not too shabby, but it was the beginning of the season and service was a bit sketchy

our home up high
every day it rained a bit or was a bit foggy, but nothing too bad

Arabba - day 3
we hiked to here and then started hitch-hiking our way around the Gruppa Stella

a climbing wall in....
kind of cool

for nick
thought you'd appreciate this nick, we'll have to come back here some time

i spy
a mountain goat...just there, on the left, near that one rock

hitchin' it
Kris in action - on the road, trying to get to the next stop

tocca me
my turn, trying to get home I think

success!
we had a hell of a lot of fun hitching our way around, met some nice people...when they did stop!

from the dining room
marmolada again

Catinaccio
hitching our way back to Bolzano, I'm pointing to where Stephen and Nichole worked last summer

no one said I was the brightest match in the box

trenitalia
Kris departing for Austria after 4 days in the dolomites...yes, he probably stunk

Verona, june 05
a few weeks later he was in Verona with his family - this is at my place

Kris and family

on the ferry to Capri - day 3
we took the slow ferry, this was one of the faster Hydrofoils going back to Sorrento

the tower in Capri town
once landing at the main port, we took a cable car up the hill to the main town

audrey in Capri
better to just window-shop here I think

beautiful architecture
I've never been to greece but this is what I imagine there

cactus graffitti
we saw about every kind of plant and fruit growing in the many, many gardens we passed

Capri
we couldn't visit the Grotto Azzuro so we hiked around a bit, this is looking back towards AnaCapri

makes you want to go swimming
this is how the sea is supposed to look i think!! beautifu!! if only it wasn't at the bottom of a 200ft cliff

not sure what it was but now this building serves as a club for elderly men where they play cards

beautiful frescos

sorrento
Aug. 15, a procession for "la maria della centura" (the virgin mary of the belt...don't ask)

Amalfi coast - day 4
we took a bus from Sorrento to Amalfi to spend the day along this famous stretch of coastline

Amalfi, il duomo
a mesmorizing church - and the piazza in front of it isn't bad either

the cloister of paradise
a presumptious name but it was pretty impressive - mosiacs, frescos, palms, etc...

mosaics in Amalfi
a close up of one of the mosaics on the walls

Amalfi
took this right before audrey stole that Vespa - magari!!

leaving amalfi
instead of getting back on a bus, we took a ferry back up the coast from amalfi to Positano

amalfi coast

amalfi coast

hmmm....
this is either amalfi or positano (or capri or naples...no, just kidding!)

amalfi coast
in positano I think

positano
one of the small (somewhat) isolated little vias we found in our giro

back at our campground
day 5, getting ready to pack up and take a train up past Vesuvius here to naples today, only an hour away

Vesuvius
i could stare at it all day, smaller than Etna but more striking i think

Naples
the 'new' castle, near the port. we moved into the city for the last two days of the trip

napoli and vesuvio
the volcano isn't that far - if the wind had been different that fateful day, it'd have been naples & not pompeii

out our hotel window in naples
near the duomo, just above the area known as SpaccaNapoli (which we walked through later that night, seedy, so i like!!)

spanish quarter
the most crowded part of Naples, made up of these tiny, compressed little streets

spanish quarter
the spanish troops occuppied this area once, thus the name - the architecure was very interesting - notice the doors/win

architecture in naples
i was struck by almost every church being of radically different styles - it was incredible

speaking of architecture
a bit of fascist influence - very heavy in Naples

audrey in piazza
naples - a main square in the city center, near the bay

naples beach
some of the few napolitani who were left in the city - no sand but it will do when it's hot

Venice - May 2005

Voga Lunga a Venezia
at the boat-club in Diadora, on the Lido. May 2005

Betsy and Josh
taking the boat out for a test run the day before the race

venice
Betsy and the others live in Garmisch, Germany but come down to do this race every year

Taylor
a true gondolier, or he could be...he and Betsy worked in Long Beach as gondoliers

technique
it's all in spinning the wrist - if you don't then the paddle pops out of the Forcola (bottom left)

Betsy at the helm
leading the way, literally, she set the pace with her strokes

from the boat
passing san marco, we almost cap-sized out here when a ferry passed by, only got wet, but lagoon water, blah!

race day
the team is ready - I was very happy to give up my place after helping to row from Lido across the lagoon to San Marco!

and they're off!
in thier Sandolo (type of boat), setting off near San Marco on the 30km race!!

Accademia
watching boats pass the accademia bridge

Cannaregio
the boats row out into the lagoon to Burano, then return to Venice, entering the city here

Voga Lunga 2005
the race is some 30 years old, established to protest the use of motorized traffic in venice

so many boats
any kind of boat is allowed, as long as you are rowing. kayaks, canoes, dragon boats, etc...

spectators
not rowing ourselves, we visited the guggenheim museum, then drank wine and awaited our friends

4 hours later
finally they made it back, rowing Venetian-style for that long, they have my complete and utter respect!

at the finish
understandably exhausted - I was wiped after the hour trek from the Lido - which I got to do again after the race

San Marco
damn proud to say I've rowed in the lagoon now, especially getting the chance to do it with the "Voga Vera" (true row)

casa nostra
our hotel on the Lido - the villa-looking one in the back - beautiful
Verona

Verona and Piazza Erbe

Opera in Verona's ARENA
"accidentally" got free tickets to see Madam Butterfly on opening night of this summer's opera season!

my new home in Verona
some friends had the apartment on the 3rd floor of this 'villa' in Verona - the tower and frescos... just an added bonus

casa mia
the new apartment, moved in September of 2004 - we have half of the 3rd floor, right below the tower

the balcony
this is the balcony off my room - the architecture is liberty, built in the 1920s - it belonged to just one family

the entrance
its still a little sparse, my flatmate and I (Fred, from Dijon, France) still have more decorating to do

my bed
my decorating skills at their max

my room again
you cant tell but the ceilings are maybe 15ft, which is beautiful, but damn hard to heat the place in winter!

door out to the balcony
the rooms are pretty big, quite a bit of space

my balcony
my room has a big balcony (15ftx8) and a view onto the neighborhood, just across the river from the center of verona

frescos across the street
the architecture in this area is incredible - its known as the swank part of town, quite a step up from my last place

Dicembre a Verona

christmas in Verona, 2004
they put up the "christmas star" every year in Piazza Bra, coming out of the Arena. it's quite a sight

sunset over Verona, Nov. 2004

o purty near close. the views were incredible!!

josh below the summit of Cantanaccio
stephen took this when we hiked up even higher than his refugio, to another at the Pass of Santner

Siena - August
came here for a week - Kate had rented an apartment and invited us down to see The Palio!!

the day before the race
here is the main piazza, full and eagerly awaiting the start of the race, but this was only a trail, the day before!

pompt and pagentry
the flag-bearers from my neighborhood - Tartuca (the turtle)

days on end of parades
there are 17 neighborhoods (contrada) - 2 races every summer - 10 contradas compete in each race

che spectacolo! flags 30ft high!
we each decided to pick a contrada to cheer for - add a little competative atmosphere

what its all about - the Palio
the Palio is this banner, carried here on an ancient cart - it was carried like this during wars 500 years ago

Kate and Aly-G
you get a little cooky after being around that many people so long - the race takes place around the edge of this square

dinner before race-day
dining in the streets of Siena - it was mid-august (the 15th) but not too hot

Tartuca - my horse!
the race lasts 1 min., 3 laps round the piazza, thats it. but the intensity, only 4 horses finished w/ their riders!

let the chaos begin!
thats the jockey of my contrada, Tartuca, being carried away along with the banner to their neighborhood - We Won!!!

banner
for the next week this banner was paraded around the city of Siena, along with an army of drummers and flag wavers

the day after -
digging up the dirt/track the next day, gives you an idea of what it all looks like without the crowd
