I love the toy-town coloured houses along the canal, leading to the lagoon of Venice, taken from the island of Burano.

Venice
This is a typical view of a Venetian canal.
Split
Walking along Split harbour a little, this is the view. Notably, you can see the bell tower of the cathedral.
Split harbour
A pleasant view of the many small sailing boats in Split harbour.
Dome
This large room is dome shaped with a circular hole in the roof. The acoustics are perfect – we heard a traditional Croatian men’s choir sing here.
Split cathedral
This is the bell tower of the cathedral in the old town of Split, Croatia.
Mount Etna
This view of Mount Etna was taken from Taormina.
Mountain road
This steep road leads from the port of Messina to the town of Taormina, through the foothills of Mount Etna. The coach I travelled on passed along the roads you see here minutes before I took the photo.
Greek theatre
The Ancient Greeks built a theatre in Taormina, Sicily. Part of the back wall is now ruined, revealing this view of Mount Etna.
Livorno lighthouse
Leaving the port of Livorno, there was a long harbour wall with several lighthouses along its length. This is one of them.
