Saw the villa in center of Sicily that retained 35 million mosaic tiles. If you’re interested in Roman history this is bucket list. It’s a photographic album of life back then. It was established there because owner was fed up with politics on the mainland. Sounds familiar as I research getting another passport.

Interesting link. The library of videos
has a lot to offer. “TOLD IN STONE” will
definitely be revisited often.
