Our last adventure in Sicily was a trip to the island of Vulcano, one of the eight Aeolian Islands. Currently 470 people live on the island which primarily live off of the tourism. There are a few little restaurants and small places to stay. We headed straight to the beach.
The beach that we landed at is right next to the sulfur baths (a bit smelly). It was fun to swim around and happen upon a vent spurting out warm water. Mostly though, it was just nice to be in the ocean.
After five days that took us around the entire island of Sicily, it was time to head back to the main land. We found a boat that would take us over night to Naples, not a bad way to go in my opinion. A word to the wise though: pack your own dinner. The food on the boat was expensive and not great. The view though, well... that was worth it.

Sleepy Charlie, early in the morning as we arrived in the Bay of Naples.
The sunrise over Mount Vesuvius. A beautiful welcome to the next leg of our journey.
