Sicily

The niches that you can see behind housed the statues that to embellish it and for the same reason, the columns were added to the sides of the stage. This place underwent various adaptations in Roman times to become also an arena for gladiators.

We have met wonderful friends as we have traveled Sicily these past weeks. We have traveled Sicily from one end of this island to the other. We have had the opportunity to eat with families 4 times in their homes including a visit to a farm making cheese and home made bread from scratch. We learned to prepare an Italian dinner in a restaurant and survived our own cooking. We rode up and down hills and narrow alleyways in Vintage 500 Fiats in Modica. We learned the history first hand of Sicily visiting the important locations. We have sampled some of Sicily's finest wines . We walked the heights of Mt. Etena. This has been a very enjoyable trip.
