Despite the heavy rainfall overnight, we woke up to blue skies and warm sun in Stintino. Liz and Isolda felt much more refreshed after a lazy morning and we motored to the Asinara Nature Reserve 10 miles away further north. The Nature Reserve is a protected area so you can only pick up a mooring buoy. The bay was completely deserted and tranquil. We went ashore to explore but the small cala of Olivia was completely deserted apart from goats, cats and donkeys, all of whom were keen to make our acquaintance. Dinner tonight is a BBQ with champagne to celebrate Jo’s birthday.
