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.
MUZA is situated by the entrance to the old town of Valetta, entrance is 5eur – well worth the money, this place was huge.
The muesum stretched over 3 floors, with lots of different rooms and exchibits, you could easily get lost.
Most of the artwork is religious and related to the grandmasters of st john. But also lots pf old furniture and tools n stuff.. dating back 4-500 years.
After googeling around a bit we foud the Ġgantija temple on Gozo, supposed to be the / or the second oldest man made building in the world (there is some old stuff in turkey)
We opted out on the hop-on-hop-off hell that is the reb busses/ferries, and did the regular ferry from Cirkewwa to Mggarr on the island of Gozo. Nice calm n easy crossing, on a big car ferry.
Besides the temple itself, there is a small muesum also. Showing old pottery, jewøery amd tools – dating vack 5600 years.. so thats older than the pyramids, way older.
Of course, it has had its wear over the years – but again, 5600 years old..thats a bit, older than the stonehenge.. really cool.
The whole area was really nice laid out, and for us beeing here in start of low season it was not crowded at all. Really cool site – of course it also had a giftshop at the end.. fridge magnets aquired!
5600 teater old statue. She looks very happy, at least the one with the head.
