From Sciacca: Villa Romana de Casale; Marsala and Mazara del Vello

One day we drove inland - a longish day - to Villa Romana de Casale - to see the amazing mosaics there:







People are still working on uncovering and preserving them:





The mosaics themselves:
































The odd mural:


But back to the pomegranites:




















And of course, the famous 'bikini girls' or female athletes:









Nearby are the ruins of Morgantina:














Then another day, westward along the coast from Sciacca are the towns of Mazara del Vello and Marsala - on a less than sunny day!
