Why I want to go to this place
I had a look at some guide books to Catania yesterday. Getting more and more excited. I can’t wait to go to Mt Etna! And to be by the sea! Only 20 more days…

I wish I’d known this website and spotted your entry prior to your leaving. I was in Sicily for 3 weeks many years ago, with Catania as homebase. I’m interested in your discoveries.

I hadn’t planned the trip, so didn’t realise that we actually weren’t staying in Catania at all! We stayed in a villa about 15 minutes drive away from Syracuse. It was absolutely beautiful. We were right next to the sea, made a lot of day trips to various places, ate well – it was a lot of fun. Catania, we didn’t see. We tried to go on our last day before going to the airport, but couldn’t find parking! Drove around the town for 20 minutes, then decided we were probably going to end up in a car crash – the drivers there are SO scary! So in the end we went to a restaurant on the outskirts. It was a small truckers’ stop, but possibly the best food we had while we were out there! Italy is surprising like that!
