Hello Everyone from Alghero on the West coast of Sardinia, an old, walled port town. Our hotel is on a small rocky headland, from which several sets of steps lead to the water. Happily I can report that John and I enjoyed a fantastic swim this morning. Water probably about 21C and crystal clear. A lot of rocks on the bottom, so fish to be seen. This morning we take a boat across the bay to visit Neptune’s Grotto, from the photos, a most impressive cave (the alternative is a drive then a descent of 600 steps – and back up !!)
Judy, have a lovely time and I am sure that the rest of the “idiots” look forward to hearing about new recipes and songs from your travels….(i certainly do !)
Spectacular wave shot! Glad to hear the water’s good. Hope the wine is also up to scratch!
Great photos Judy although that last one looks a bit like the sea wall at the rock pool – maybe the artisan is from Sardinia… Neptune’s Grotto looks amazing! I look forward to seeing the photos. Missed the swim this morning fortunately as Bevan related two slicks advancing on them (Chris, Dave, Bevan) from the island and Raglan St.
From Stephen:
This is my Korean version of Sardinia……and would not recommend a swim in the HAN river near my Hotel.
Thanks for being the ‘advance party’ for my upcoming trip to Sardinia – the pictures and reports are fantastic. Goodbye cold waters of Balmoral…
