We haven’t had a drop of rain since we left Cartagena, Spain mid May.

But today it rained.

No, I mean it RAINED.

At the time we were ashore doing some shopping, as the sun was shining and it seemed a nice day!  In just under an hour our dinghy had over 6 inches of fresh water in it. Then the rain eased off while we went back to the boat. And then it started raining again, and now the dinghy has another inch of water.

Anyway, tomorrow it looks like good weather for a departure, so we are leaving Villasimius to head overnight to Sicily.

Farewell Sardinia!

We will keep you informed.

    Calgiari is a place where my family went for a beach holiday when we were living in Trieste. I was about 4 years oldat the time. I don’t remember any details, but somehow the name has stuck. my mother must have talked about it.
    You must have collected a lot of rainwater to do all your laundry!
    I seem to recognize that handsome chap as well. How come?
