We had a leisurely start to the day and didn’t set off
until 10.30. There wasn’t
much wind and so we motored nearly all the way. The wind finally leapt into
life just as we were coming into the marina – par for the course! However
there was no problem and the marina staff helped us tie up.
We were next to an American yacht - Indigo. They are also off to Turkey but heading
rather further east than us – to Kemer. We also met another couple on a Canadian
registered yacht - Saltscar III. They
were from the north of England but had
emigrated to Canada in the
70ies and had been sailing with the
Americans in the Caribbean. They were
also going to Kemer.

We had agreed to meet up with Shamrock Rose to go out for a
meal on the Saturday night but managed to fit in some sightseeing before then.
Cagliari is
absolutely fascinating with lots of really narrow old fashioned streets
A serious portcullis
I don’t know what it meant but he
was rather sweet!
Breathe in if you own a 4x4
We did meet up with Richard and Bethan from Shamrock Rose
and had a wonderful meal in a little restaurant that you wouldn’t have
looked at twice! Well done to them for discovering it!
