Monday May 9th
We left the hotel at 8:30 for our visit to the Valley of the Temples (Unesco). Once we arrived we waited half an hour for security to check us in and let us through. Italian organization at its best!
This area includes 7 temples, in the Doric style, from the 5th century BC - we saw 4 of them. It was fairly high up and we could see for miles. It was a walking tour, with a local guide, and a visit to the archeology museum which has many interesting finds from the area.
Afterwards we went into town (Agrigento) and had a pizza lunch sitting outside. We returned to the hotel at 3 and spent some time pool side in the sun.
Four-course dinner again - not sure how many more I can eat.
