Day 41 - Scopello - July 7

Drove to Segesta today. Went to buy an entry ticket at the ticket office and he handed us two and said it was free. Went to the ticket office on the way to the Temple and we had to show the free tickets to get in!  So funny! Keeping people employed for the day I guess.

Amazingly well preserved Temple from 400 BC. One lintel needs a bit of support. It is in the middle  of a rural setting and looks a little surreal. 

After the temple I was happy to walk to the Teatro as it was only 1250m but Ronnie wanted to wait 20mins for the shuttle bus. Thankfully we did because it was all uphill! But on the way up I noticed you get a great view of the temple half way down so after we saw the Teatro Ronnie agreed to walk back down under the midday sun.

The path was rocky and I fell (blood was involved) but it was worth it to get this surreal photo.
