    September 12, 2024 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Off on our road trip with Jenny and James starting with the ancient city of Agrigento - Valley of the Temples dating back to 5th century BC. Next Modica. Amazing cathedrals, we stayed in an authentic hotel with a stunning views from our balcony. Stopped into villa Romana del Casale where there are incredible Roman Mosaics ( I’m sure this is the depiction of the 1st mullet ). Then off to Syracuse staying on Ortigia Island right on the coast. Mark could not resist the local market deal for breaky. There are tunnels that the Greeks built that run kms under the town. These had many uses ove the ages, including as bomb settlers during the war. For those Indiana Jones fans you might recognise a few places. Finally, we day tripped to Taormina. Just for a bit of White Lotus fix.Read more
