Naxos	Naxos
We anchored in the bay off of Naxos, which is at the base of Mt. Etna, an active volcano, that towers over 10,000 above the Sicilian countryside. Taormina rises above the Mediterranean and has commanding views of both the ocean and the volcano.

Sicilian Town - Taormina	Cliffside Village
Taormina is a beautiful Sicilian town that is nestled in the cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean. The streets are narrow and surrounded by beautiful parks and steep terrain which only adds to the allure of the village.

Martini's at Observatory Lounge	Sicilian Sunset
As the ship departed the bay at Naxos, we were greeted by a beautiful Mediterranean sunset. Before dinner, as is my tradition, I had a pre-dinner martini at the most beautiful area of the ship, the Observatory Lounge. From here, you can see the sun set, the Moon rise, and look at the oceans many moods.

Dinner at Latitudes	Dinner
We ate dinner at the reservations restaurant, Latitudes. It was the best dinner of the voyage so far, and service was excellent. Latitudes only serves about 40 passengers, and dinner starts promptly at 7:30 p.m.

Karaoke Night at Voyager Lounge	Voyager Lounge
This was the second Karaoke Night in the Voyager Lounge, and was the funniest evening aboard the ship. The crowd was finally bonding and many friends were made that evening. I bought a number of bottles of champagne to get the party started.
