November 12 - The Last Day!

 This is our last full day in Sicily.  Tomorrow we check out of our apartment and head for Catania and the airport.  Tomorrow night around 6;30pm we will fly off to Istanbul.  And from there on to Chicago and then to Albuquerque, arriving on Monday midday.

The morning arrived grey-white and then the floods started.  We were thinking we would have to drive back to Taormina to the lab because we have herd nothing from them. But them Michael had a brain storm and said lets ask our hotel manager to help us.  And he did.  He called the lab and was able to get our info and then print it out!!!!! We would not have to drive up the steep hill to Taormina, park, and then walk to the lab and try to communicate what was needed.  He did it all and printed out our negative covid results so we were all set!  

So around 1pm the skies finally lightened a little.  We decided we wanted pizza one more time.  Our hotel manager had recommended Pizza Regina to us so we decided to drive there.  Finding parking was a little iffy - but we did find some close to the restaurant.  Only to find out the small seating area was closed.  They were only doing take-out.  Michael eats an Arancini the rice ball thing while we wait.  Back at the apartment, we enjoy the pizza.  Then the skies lighten and the sun comes out!  Will it last?  Do we want to go out once again?  Michael decides to take a nap and I am trying to catch up on accounting.  

We both managed to get some photos before the sun disappeared and the clouds took over again.  And the rains started again.

This last photo shows my setup for powering up my devises.  Here is Sicily they do not use the European plugs, but there own.  So it gets a little complicated.
