More 300 m and I arrived at my destination, Carsten thinks, when he is traveling on the road to the Mediterranean island of Stromboli in southern Italy. But unfortunately, the ship can not land because of stormy weather and heavy seas and driving slowly past the island instead. After two days of enforced stay in Sicily Carsten comes after another turbulent crossing finally on the volcanic island of Stromboli.
The ascent of the day 926 m high volcanic mountain is very difficult. The glowing lava right only at dusk and at night to its best advantage, is the rise in the afternoon. On lava rock, Ruins it goes up into the crater area without vegetation. White steam rises in the vicinity of the various craters on. Only faint rumble is heard. Suddenly and unexpectedly a red-hot lava fountain shooting with a loud bang from the crater opening and rises up to 200 m high in the night sky. Heat and noise are clearly noticeable. A major fireworks display, that after a few seconds to collapse and settle in a wide shower of sparks on the ground crackles. A natural spectacle, The fascinated as each new outbreak.
Carstens years of desire, the unrestrained violence of a volcanic eruption to get up close and photograph, was finally granted in.
