Where are we? What are we up to?

Hey there everybuggy!
We finally made it out of Dahab safely and back to Greece where we hung for a day or so and departed from our fellow travellers Katy and Handy... See you guys in less than a week i think! Will be catching up with them and Ness and Byrne in Austria! for a northern Italian tour. Looking forward to that!
But at the moment we are in the land of- amazing good cheap wine, awesome coffee- cheaper if you have it at the bar and not sit down style, food that is just like (David's) Norna's cooking , expensive everything, out of control internet prices somebody tell them their dreamin!, fantastic leather shoes, mad drivers- worse than Egypt! if thats possible, BIG sunnies -on Blokes and Chicks- ladies wearing shorts- (knicker bocker/pantaloon style - not for me, been there did that 25 years ago!) with high heals, guys wearing half grown mohawks and hippy tee shirts (trust me they are all sOOOo in this summer!) beautiful young people and some ugly oldies too! Did I mention expensive? Land of the vespa/ moped.
Yes thats right Italy!
Its wonderful we got to Naples and the first thing we did was buy us a tent as camping is a cheaper option than hostels and hotels. The first night was a little rough sleeping but after we bought a purple lilo each everything is bellisimo! Set for sleep and lazy days in the water!
Went to resort town of Sorrento- postcards are in the mail! Had a fantastic veiw of Mt. Vesuvio. Hired a moped for 6 days, climbed Mt. V. and had a beer up there! both had a cold for 2 days, generally just hung out and cruised the Almalfi coast, beautifully unique but wouldnt want to live there.
Now have made our way down to Sicily, tomorrow we go to Mt. Etna which is supposed to be more inpressive than the other and still smoking and spitting larva and rocks on occasions! Sorry its a shorty but its also too expensive!
