Kevin and Teresa came to visit in March this year while we were in Licata marina.
Walking up to the castle from the marina in the background.....
.......and back down through the amazing cemetery.
Detail of one of the many statues there.
The fascinating mosaics at Villa Romana
A breezy walk to the end of the breakwater.
Valley of Temples at Agrigento
We discovered a new beach along the coast from Licata when we went geocaching.......
........found it!!!
Time for a paddle
A font in Ragusa cathedral.
We visited the chocolate museum in Modica where they still make chocolate the same way as the Aztecs did. These sculptures are made of solid cocoa.
In Modica, generations of families have followed the same techniques as the Aztecs,
using metates made with lava stone from Mt Etna. Locals would mix the
chocolate paste with sugar, “cold working” it so that the sugar doesn’t
get hot enough to melt; it gives the treat an unusual but deliciously
crunchy texture.
Time to sample Italian gelato in Ragusa.
