Had a great time (but sopping wet) in Sardinia. Lovely place but I think we were a month early.
Made it to Cagliari in time for the 5pm (overnight) ferry to Naples.
Found out last minute that it’s canceled due to storms and next one is 5 days.
Scott’s developing Trench-Foot with all the rain we’re having, so used our dubious language skills to get us onto an overnight boat to Civitaveccia (about an hour north or Rome).
With the new Pope (il Papa) being elected today, the whole place will be mobbed.
Will be interesting to see where we end up – given that the only booking we’ve made so far that didn’t end up at a surprise destination was the Channel Tunnel. If that had gone awry it would have made News at 10.
