This is the smallest volcano in Italy. A particular and interesting spectacle but its secret is soon revealed: emissions of gaseous hydrocarbon which in contact with the oxygen from the air remain constantly alight, giving rise to phenomena called “burning fountains”.
Anyone for toasted ing marshmallow over the flame?

Is that you on the right?? Marshmallow, spelling comes from the mallow plant which is native to Delaware, here at the beach, and now has many environmental and medical applications!

Mrs B., That isn’t me for I am holding the camera/iPhone. These are the five Brazlians who together with one German and myself are on the same cycle of walking stages… we begin and end the same days. Thanks for the plant information and weaving the wonderful town of Lewes into the blog. Keep the information coming! my
