Sunning ourselves in Sardinia

Monday, 9 October 2017

Just when we're starting to get a handle on the French language we throw ourselves into a spin and board a ship to Italy.

Last week we left our home in Provence and took an overnight ferry to Sardinia for a week of sunshine and seaside. Let's be honest, the tans needed a top up and we looked for the warmest place on the Med.

It's low season here in Sardinia. In fact most of the resorts are closing in the next couple of weeks. We hoped the weather would be kind to us and we couldn't be happier. Sunny and 23-26 degrees everyday - and the water temperature is a mild 20 degrees after the long hot summer. Not too many tourists on the beaches or cars on the roads. Our kind of holiday.

  

The first few days were spent with our Aussie/London friends Dave and Kylie and their twin boys - E had the best time having some kids to play with. I think he's in need of some kid company and running around on the beach with these two couldn't have worked out better.




With over 1800km of unspoilt coastline, Sardinia is well known for its amazing beaches - crystal clear azure blue waters, shallow and calm. Every beach is a postcard.










The food situation here is pretty good - all the cheeses, the prosciutto, the seafood, the gelato! It's given France a run for it's money.


Thanks Sardinia, you're exactly what we needed .... and hey, tomorrow is our wedding anniversary, how 'bout we head to Portofino?!?!
