After having joined a small path borrowed by some guided groups, we have finally our first vision of Etna in activity. For Bernard and Bruno, it is the first vision of a volcano in eruption. The explosions are noisy, but the cone is small and at the bottom of the crater which must be 150 or 200 meters lower. We are spellbound by the crater and the fumaroles as well as the few minutes spaced explosions. It appears that we had excellent conditions of visibility, the bottom of Voragine is seldom visible. This one is filled of lava flow which does not have any loophole. After one hour, we go up on the peak which separates the two craters, to see where the explosions and the bombs which we sometimes see passing come from.
