Caltagirone


Matt, Jordan and I made a day trip to a really charming city about an hour away from base. The main attraction was the fantastic flight of 142 steps (see Jordan at the base). The steps are volcanic stone with beautiful colored tiles. Each side of the staircase is lined with stores, restaurants and the like. The town is known for its beautiful ceramic work.
We also visited the Duomo not far from

the stairs.







The walls were old but well kept.

Matt felt the need to hold this one up.
