Road Trip!

Day three was a scorcher and we had a lazy morning by the pool before embarking on our one big adventure of the week. As mentioned, Pete and Gia love some craft beer and both had researched breweries on the island. We drove a little over an hour south through some mountainous scenery while the kids slept. We found the brewery, but just did a drive by to try to keep the kids sleeping. We continued on and without a destination in mind, ended up at the Spiagglia (beach) di Su Barone. There were some nice pine trees, providing much needed shade. We had a treat at the beach front cafe and Jude and Pete played a bit in the water before retreating to the air conditioned car. Then we stopped by the brewery in earnest. The brewer appeared quite busy when we subtly tried to ask about a tasting and instead directed us to the grocer around the corner, which sold their beer. We had fun buying a lot of local products and of course the beer and Sardinia wine. We drove back and went back to the first restaurant we found as we couldn't find any others in the area that were open at 6pm. It was pasta night and was delicious. Jude did so well eating his pasta civilized, twirling it around his fork. Maeve on the other hand was an adorable hot mess with her pasta! Boy was she happy about it, too! She is such a smiley baby!

Road trip! We were probably jamming to Despacito, our theme song for the week.

So ready for dinner. Clean, for now. 
 



If you frequent the same restaurant twice, I guess they like you and give you local Mirto (myrtle liquor). Saluti!
 Back at the resort, I got the pool to myself with an evening dip. This is the life!
