A rest day really…and more restful than most!
…don’t you love that 29m journey time!!? Average speed over 800km/hr!! Haha…a Strava spaz!
After a quick breakfast en route…we were on the ferry by 8am.
And it did not arrive into Cagliari until around 8pm!! (A bit frustrating..in that the last time I took this (once a week!) ferry…it was an overnighter!…much better!).
But…not a bad ferry at all. Grimaldi again…but not half as grim as our last ferry from Igoumenitsa to Brindisi.
We had booked a cabin (..sans double bed…hahaha!)….so we could lie down….read….sleep ….between cups of coffee and bits of food!
Better than that…it had a pool! And for the first time in my experience of these ferries…it was full of water! All but deserted…but I used it! Three strokes long…but wasted a good chunk of time!
So…cannot complain really…and Grimaldi has gone up a notch in my estimation!
A bit of time to catch up on the blog…and emails…even if I could not actually post..nor send anything!!
And I slept! A snore-less (I am assured!) two hours! And had a great shower…so we were ready to hit Cagliari….fresh and clean!
Arrived on time at around 9pm…but by the time we had found our apartment (…it was dark by then…and I literally fell into it..for there was an unseen one foot step DOWN into the house!)…
…and rushed out again…it was nearly 10pm by the time we received our food!
…and 11.30 by the time we got to bed!! Ok not very late really…but for early starters…with lots of hot biking to do…it was VERY late!!
Sweet street we were living in…(taken the next morning)…
….even if the bedroom was windowless….and airless…and the whole place was a bit too “bijou”!
Only four cycling days left…OMG…not sure I am ready for this adventure to finish!
