Where we've been

I guess Brad and I really did have our wits about us when we planned the third leg of our adventure in Sardegna. We put countless hours into researching where to stay and considered dozens of locations. In fact, if I failed to return your phone call last Spring, it was probably because I was on Trip Advisor reading about vacation rentals.  My apologies!

We knew we wanted "easy" for this part of the trip. Little to no driving. Access to the sea and a pool. Something scenic. And we got exactly that. We ended up in a condo community called Punto Volpe, right below the start of the exclusive Costa Smeralda (I originally reported that we were on  Golfo Atanci - had that wrong!).  

The development was built about 25 years ago and it was so well planned. Each little house had a lovely established garden with total privacy and mature plantings. The architects worked around the natural slope of the property and preserved the original flora and fauna. 

They also constructed wonderful pathways down to the Sea with a string  of stone platforms built into the rocks jutting out of the sea, providing an inviting gateway into the water. 

There were several sand beaches within walking distance with just a handful of folks to share it with - big difference from the over populated beaches. 

I already introduced you to the pool. 

We obeyed siesta hours, finally allowing us to sink into some good reading. The kids made some headway too on their summer homework. 

Best of all, were the views from our porch and mealtimes outside. The kids even slept outside a few times on the cushions. 

It was so hard to leave. So hard. 

Oh that Sea. We'll be back. One day. 

Ciao and Baci
