An Italian Summer

---

We have arrived back to Bolonga, all of us feeling a little crispy...
After spending 3 straight days on the beautiful beaches of Sardina our skin is showing the affects of the sun.
Even after taking turns rubbing sunscreen on each other not one of us escaped a burn...
but it was totally worth it:

We left Civittaveccnia at 10:00pm and slept on the boat arriving in Sardina the next morning
From there we took a bus into the main city and then cabbed it to a little camp ground about 15mins away where we rented 2 trailers for a couple of nights.
upon arriving we all changed into our bathing suits and walked down to the ocean only 10mins from the park where we spent the rest of the afternoon.
the following morning we made some breakfast and took the bus into town to check out a different beach ...
it was just as amazing as the first one.
crystal clear turquoise water and white sandy beaches
grabbed some true italian pizza for lunch and some groceries for dinner before busing it back to our campsite.
That night we walked back down to the ocean to watch the sunset.
It was a little cloudy so we couldn't see much but we had fun taking lots of pictures anyway.
The next morning we packed up our gear and checked out.
We planned on taking another night boat back to the main land so we still had another day to blister away in the sun.
This boat was a lot more full then the last one
so we all ended up having to sleep on the floor as there where no more couches left
We arrived a lot earlier then expected and the 4 girls made a pit stop in Pisa
to see the tower for the day
and take some nice cheesy pictures using our newly acquired backpacking muscles to push the poor tower back up.
Matteo took the train straight to Bolonga, opting out of our little photo shoot
There isn't a whole lot to see there other than the tower so we jumped on an early afternoon train
(that ended up being delayed for 2 hours)
and arrived in Bolonga for yet another amazing home cooked italian dinner.
taking a night train to Geneva (Switzerland) tomorrow
only this time we have booked bunks!
we are trying to approach this night train experience positively...
but still cautiously..
wish us luck?
