Chiuso

Went to the 2nd largest stalactite in the world today (in Sardinia). Over 38 meters long! Wow.

Then took a drive to the attractive hill town of Bosa on the eastern Green Coast. Really lovely, brightly coloured houses and a 600 year old, hill-top castle.

Also went up to the Costa Smeralda, a 70 mile stretch of coastline bought by the Aga Khan in the 1960’s and now a playground for the mega-rich.

The Giants’ Tombs we went to were constructed around 1,500BC and were thought to be burial mounds for kings. Impressive. Also Chiuso.

However, last night we found a cracking little backstreet bar in Orosei that used to be the town-centre donkey stables.
Aperto!

Sardinia really is a beautiful place and we’re determined to come back some time. However, for those not fluent in Italian, until 30th March, everything is ‘Chiuso’ ……(closed)…..
