The advantage of a motorhome is that you are not restricted to charter destinations or places where there are hotels. Today, we started the journey south from Buggerru, travelling on breathtakingly beautiful roads through the mountains, with many impressive views of the sea.

The day before yesterday we left Bosa and started driving south along the west coast of Sardinia. Today we have reached the small village of Portixeddu, just north of Buggerru. The roads are winding - sometimes along the coast and sometimes high up in the mountains. We have driven past fields, beaches, high mountains and industrial areas, and sometimes straight through small charming villages (where the motorhome barely fits on the roads).

You may remember that we had a nice evening with our British and German table neighbours at the restaurant the other night? They ended up inviting us to their village in Sardinia, and of course we didn't hesitate to accept such a nice invitation! In the middle of the day yesterday we packed up the motorhome and drove to Scano di Montiferro, not far from Bosa. Wow, what an experience!

Birthday celebration in Sardinia. First a BIG THANK YOU for all the nice congratulations that came in on Peter's 55th birthday yesterday! We celebrated the big day at the small cosy beach restaurant here at S'abba Druche, just north of Bosa. And it was even more pleasant than perhaps expected, both good food and nice meetings!

Now we have found a favourite place in Sardinia where we feel comfortable! As soon as we rolled in yesterday we felt that "Here we stay for a while!". We started in Alghero on the west coast yesterday afternoon and drove south - on nice winding roads along the coast.

The caves of Neptune, or Grotta di Nettuno as they are called in Italian, are located outside Alghero in Sardinia. Neptune's caves were discovered by fishermen in the 19th century and the cave system is one of the most famous on the island. A lovely boat trip took us there and it was very convenient in the summer heat. Come to the Neptune Caves in Sardinia!

Now we have arrived in the nice town of Alghero. But the day started by driving to the far end of the Stintino peninsula in north-west Sardinia. There should be many beautiful beaches ... and there probably are. But here in July, it is BOTH difficult to find space on the beach AND difficult to find space to park the motorhome. After being driven away from a car park (don't know why - we were standing inside the parking space?) we gave up and rolled further south.

We continue to explore Sardinia! Today we have driven a bit out on the cape in the northwest where the town of Stintino is located. There are supposed to be fantastic beaches here (we have only seen a small part yet) and outside is the island "Isola Asinara" (Donkey Island), which is a national park and where there are supposed to be wild albino donkeys.

Today we drove across Sardinia, from Cala Gonone in the east to a campsite in Porto Torres in the north-west. The plan is to follow the west coast southwards from here. When we left Cala Gonone we saw a lot of really mighty mountains. Since then the road has been flatter and less exciting.

First, a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who sent me congratulations yesterday! I really got lots of nice greetings on the blog, Facebook, Instagram and email. I have read all of them several times and it really warms me up! My wonderful colleagues had also recorded a video where they sang for me - but how nice is that?
