Siciliy seems to be a treasure trove full of things like this 2,500-year-old temple. Just amazing! How do you find them and know about them, Allison? You just show us one after the other after the other! YOU are the gift! <3

Today we’re going to see a church built in the early 12th century. THAT is old!”
