Up and about super early today, wanna try getting to the beach before the i ferno, that is the sun, sets in

The beach is just over 1 kilometer from the house, so not a really long walk.

Lots of twists and turns, stairs going up n down. And even thoug I was early (0755), the sun had started to hit the stone walls – pretty much making it a walk in a oven 🙂

But I made it ! – and the water was excelent, the beach was sand (most beaches/bathing areas, are stone). Crystal clear waters.

There was a kiosk that sold water and icecream, but it was still setting up, så – next time.

There was a taxi boat that charged 10euros for a returning trip – I think that when the real heat kicks in, it will be worth it. :).. boat was 2 minuts, walking was 20 minutes.

The wild boars are pretty used to being aroud people. 7-8 of them broke into our backyard just now,

I tried scaring them away with a water gun toy – no go. Garden hose did the trick!

Me, Maren and Pål took the car to Santa Teresa, all the way north on the island. It was where me and Maren arrived, after flying into Figari in Corsika.

Its a 30 min something drive, and we really did not have any plans other than to see something new.

Its a small town with aprox 5000 people, and you can probably add a zero during tourist season.

There is a shop in the main centre area called Bottega. It has a great selection of Sardinian gin, wine and this mito stuff. You can also get some tastibg menues here, but those had to be booked in advance. Well worth a visit anyways. We got a bottle of gin and some grape molasses stuff that we are gonna try out when we get back home.

The heat is hard, 35c in the shade. But never the less we walked all the way aout to the old castle for some great views.

And of course, a church visit… not really worth the visit 🙂

We also drove the short trip out to capo teste for a second lunch, the place was packed with cars along the beautifull beaches there .. and we found a rwsturant we need to try if we ever get back here.

0,2 cl beer bottle, some local brew – pretty good. I need to get some of tgese bottles for future beer brewing.

We drove the superfancy bmw to the airport in Olbia, to pick up Geit and Pål.

Did not reaøøy have a lot of time there, but we did find a microbrewery 👍👍

I drove, so i had to settle for a 3,5% ipa, Maren did a taster..lots pf nice beers.. this is some kind of a chainstore setup, but still nice…and 3 minutes from the airport.

The drive from Olbia to Costa Paradiso is a bit of a nightmare, the trip takes bear two hours one way – twists n turns, crazy drivers…

We are headed to Sardinia, or – we where headed on 16th July, we have now arrived. 🙂

Due to the SAS strike, we had a bit of a hassel to get tickets sorted, but we ended up booking ticket with Swiss and Edelweis Air. So we did oslo, zurich, corsika and then ferry to st teresa at sardinia.

Taxi to Costa Paradiso, keys to house – and straight in the pool. 36c in the shade.

A really beautifull place, big pool .. close to the ocean.. and lots of wild boars roaming the streets.

Tomorrow we need to do some exploring, tonight its pool and beer.
