Two weeks ago we went to Sicily. My great grandfather originated from there from a town called Trecastagni (three saints). He moved to Australia when he was about 20. We saw a monument that said LICCIARDELLO on it (Mums side of the family.) In Piazza Marconi there were kids illegally buying firecrackers. They snuck some into people's pockets and then the firecrackers would blow up and people would scream.

You can't see it but it has Licciardello engraved on it.

The Sicilians have great foods such as : arancini, iris and brioche con gelato.
I have eaten them all and they are all delicious. Arancini is rice and ragu deep fried in breadcrumbs. Iris is dough with chocolate cream inside in a coating of breadcrumbs. Brioche con gelato is cold ice-cream in a hot bun. BU0NISSIMO!!!!!!!

Then we went to Mount Etna a giant active volcano on Sicit. We could not go to the top because of our asthma but we got to go to a crator filled with dry lava. After we brought some real OBSIDIAN and sulphur. It was brilliant.
