Well, I have arrived in Cagliari.
Great uneventful flight with great views.


The coast of Sardinia


A light lunch ? c/o Edwardo
It’s a hard life and after Edward treating me to cake and coffee Edward gave me my next task for the morning. Preventative maintenance which involved mast Climbing. So up I went.

We set sail from Cagliari with our two, wonderful Italian friends and decided to head for an anchorage in Tuerredda.
A very windy start and we were ploughing through the waves at a rate of over 7 knots.
We invited our Italian friends to Arctura for some chicken Schnitzels, and after a wonderful evening ferried them back to their yacht by tender. Next day the invitation was reciprocated with a fantastic pasta follow bow chick hen curry.
Swimming and snorkelling in these wonderful water was a pleasure and for October surprisingly warm.
