Morgantina

While Gare was in Ortigia studying and writing papers, I went to Morgantina an ancient Greek city complete with theatre, market, and kilns. I also had a huge, huge 35 euro meal! Lots of vegetarian antipasto like sun dried tomatoes, fresh mushrooms, green olives, fresh cheese made from the goats of the owners father in law! A true Sicilian experience. I asked one of our tour guides how often they eat a meal like this, the answer- typically once a week! I can't imagine, it was like Thanksgiving! Here are some pics...

The castle that is carved into the sandstone rock.

The steps in the market place, unique to this ancient greek city. Sorry I don't have any food pictures! :)
