This Monday, we went on a beautiful sailboat in Villasimius. The boat was a long sailing boat, and held about 35 people comfortably. In the morning, the sky was blue, the sea was crystal clear, and it was very warm and beautiful. However, as the day progressed, a small thunderstorm happened while we were on the water. Despite not being very warm, the beach was still amazingly beautiful--one of the prettiest beaches I've ever been to. We climbed to the top of the rocks (pictured later) and took in the most beautiful view. For lunch, we were offered fresh Sardinia pasta, bread, cheese, salami, and yummy desserts. Honestly all the types of food I need to be happy!
Later that day for dinner, we went to a cute vegetarian soup place. The waitress there was so nice, and talked to us all about her experiences going to school here, and her hopes and aspirations. The dinner we had was equally as delicious: caprese on a screwer, fruit and vegetable salad, potato and rice soup, and two cheese plates! However, the company was what really made that dinner enjoyable.
The next day, we had two guest speakers come and talked to us: Tiziana Lai, about end-of-life-vehicles and Alessandro Murgia about "Management of contaminates sites from mining activites in Sardinia". I found Murgia's lecture interesting as he also talked about the military testing activity in Sardinia.
Today, we went to Teluda, a beautiful beach not too far away. It was a pretty relaxed day--I just went snorkling, swam around, played mini badminton, and remembered how fun it was to do flips and handstands in the water. A good day spent at the beach!
Some of the sailors would feed the birds pecorino cheese!

Great day at the beach
