Mount Etna

As I previously said Barb and I went on a long vacation to see some things before they are gone. Little did I know Mount Etna would erupt shortly after we visited. We were there on October 27th. It erupted just 16 days later on November 12th.

The view and scenery was nice, walking into a crater was interesting, but the wind was blowing really hard. I estimated it was between 50 and 60 MPH. We had to really lean into the wind and wear protective clothing. The wind was blowing hard enough to put rocks into our shoes.

  1. Since you seem to be able to cause volcanic eruptions by visiting, your travels need to be more strategic.

      • There is a supervolcano in New Zealand. Need to have a nuclear war scare so all the billionaires bail out to their bunkers.
