A visit to Agrigento

Sara and I decided to take a few days and travel to Agrigento. We stayed at B & B Giunone.  It was a perfect place for us to stay: A beautiful, clean, comfortable room with a private bath and balcony; an amaizing breakfast; wireless internet helped us plan our next day’s adventure; private off-street gated parking…it was exactly what we were looking for! (We booked with booking.com, but they are also on TripAdvisor) img_1341img_1343img_1416

We enjoyed walking around the old areas of Agrigento.  There are many quaint shops to browse through, beautiful views, and many restaurants. We ended up eating at a wonderful restaurant right next to our B &B, Trattoria die Templi. Amazing food!!!

I ordered the spada flan with white fish cake. Sara got a baked fish with zucchini. So delicious!!!

We explored the Turkish Steps. Awe inspiring! img_1348img_1350img_1360img_1368img_1374img_1386img_1390

We also explore the Valley of Temples. Next time Sara said she will bring an umbrella for shade! It was a beautiful day to explore the site. img_1418img_1447img_1448img_1456img_1459img_1464img_1471img_1472img_1474img_1479img_1493img_1523

  1. These pictures make me so happy that you saw this part of the island. Spectacular ruins and what a beautiful day for the Scala dei Turchi. Did you see the clay on the shores? Someone told us that it is of fine quality.
