I was just lucky to be sitting on the right side of the plane and I had my camera ready. The plane circled above the bay and the volcano so I had ample time to get these shots. :-) Best regards, Keith Hi Nathan,

Glad you enjoyed my Italy posts. There's another one coming up next week by one of my favourite Italian travel bloggers! :-) I don't have a single 'favourite' part of Italy. I've visited most parts of Italy, from the Dolomites and the lakes in the north right through the middle (Tuscany/Umbria/Rome/Naples) to the south (Sicily) and Sardinia and I loved them all! I love the whole country, its people, the sights AND the food/wines! Cheers, Keith Hello Dee,

Vesuvius and the crater. Am enjoying your Italy posts and remembering my family's time there too. My 10-year-old daughter couldn't wait to visit Pompeii. It was wonderful to see through her curious eyes. Here's a link to our trip there, http://travelandtravails.com/architecture/pompeii-through-childs-eyes/. What was your favorite part of Italy?
