Valley of the Dolls
... All that remained of the original roadway was approximately a 3-foot wide patch adjacent to the uphill curb. Just wide enough for a motorcycle to get through. We, of course, rode through. Three of us two up and John, the single rider. Piece of cake. The upside is that there was no traffic the entire length of the road.
Hunger pangs were hitting the group around 2:30 so we decided to stop for a snack at a lovely café on a bluff above some of ...
The temples of Agrigento

The next day Richard was off to the hospital and was ...
The Valley of the Temples
... at the hotel again (Jane was very happy to hear even the locals were struggling to cope with the extreme heat!) The city of Agrigento was first founded in 582BC, and was one of the most important Greek cities in the Mediterranean...this Greek influence seems to be relatively strong throughout southern Sicily. Whilst our stay in Agrigento was only brief, it seemed there was some evidence of more Greek origins (pharmacies, for example, are signed 'pharmacia' in ...
