Farniente

Have probably said it before, so sorry, but the East coast of Sardinia is really beautiful. Not many great anchorages in the middle and one marina more expensive than the others at Calletta, but it does have an amazing long empty sandy beach with sand dunes and kite surfers and a stunning mountainous backdrop.
Its been fun to revisit places in the summer like Arbatax and Porto Corallo instead of late autumn as before and also we have bumped into a few ex marmaris... Chris and Lois and then the lovely Mario and Lilliane. Good anchorages around the tip of south east sard. Two solitary dolphin viewings and no fish.
Martyn is back in the UK now. He is a new grandpa to our new Canadian contingent...the lovely Rowan.
I’m enjoying running along the Salinas, very early in the morning cos of the heat... (Although I did see a water rat the size of a dog this morning) and watching the squadrons of very pink flaming mingoes flying backwards and forwards to roost in the Salinas... How do they keep their heads up.
