Sicily Day 16 - July 9th Rome to HomeToday was our going home day. We took the shuttle to the airport and checked in fairly easily. It was a log flight to Hong Kong, then another long one back to Melbourne. It was our first bus tour and we faced it with some trepidation but Trafalgar did a great job. Antonio, our tour guide was fantastic, he had a wealth of information, his patience was inexhaustible, and he was always in a good humour. Massimo, our driver drove our coach with enormous skill, smoothly guiding us through the busiest traffic, the narrowest village streets and the most vertiginous mountain tracks with great aplomb. The coach itself was comfortable and the stops were regular enough. The hotels were first class, a couple of them quite luxurious. Our fellow travellers were from a variety of places; the US, Canada, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. All of them proved to be wonderful people and we made numerous new friends.
