Alghero 2012 (Day 8): Sun In My Eyes

Day 8: Sun In My Eyes

After too freshly chilled days, it was time for some sun again. I already knew it was going to be hot today, but the 33 degrees I read on the temperature was outreagous! With not a cloud in sight, the sun finally played the lead part again.

Alghero 2012 (Day 7): Mountain Safari

Day 7: Mountain Safari

It's windy today and instead of seeing Alghero for the fith time in a row, we picked a new destination. the town of "Bosa" was highly recommended, so we decided to give it a try. We were not dissapointed! Because although Bosa on itself was pretty unique, the drive towards the city was one I will not forget quickly. We must have driven an hour from the foot of the mountain towards it's top, very impressive! The town itself was in a deep siesta, so it mostly silence that was found there. Impressive non the less.

After the Bosa trip, We couldn't resist to return to Alghero's mini paradise. Going to miss that the most I think.

Alghero 2012 (Day 6): The Hidden Paradise Of Alghero

Day 6: The hidden paradise of Alghero

Today we decided to ignore both the city beach as well as Lazzaretto and Bombarde. Instead, we took a gamble to find some place else. We ended up at must be the most gorgeous location oc the district!

Behind a few rows of pine trees and forest paths, there apparently lies a hidden beach of unimaginable beauty. The best way to describe it it to look at it as an deserted battlefield between forest and beach. The two seamlessly seem to flow over into each other and that brings with pure paradise.

I've must have swum for hours there. The atmosphere was perfect; Not too crowded, not too hot, unnatural clean...This is why I choose Alghero as my holiday destination!

After some very non Italian selfmade hamburgers, we returned to the same spot only to find oit it's even more gorgeous with an Alghero sunset. This is the absolute highlight of Alghero for me so far. Beautiful.




Alghero 2012 (Day 5): Silence Never Heard

This was a off day for me. The weather wasn't what it used to be, and it sortof transpired into myself. I felt sick all day and I was pretty much stuck to the day. It's going much better now, as I'm typing this from the balcony from the hotel where I can see the city sleeping. The busy energetic town of Alghero can be quite silent aswell. One more reason to fall in love with it.






























Alghero 2012 (Day 4): Orange Striped

After being fried yesterday, I decided to buy some protection. Factor 40 sunscreen and a cap helped, but my thanks go out mostly to my beloved orange striped parasol. Where yesterday the heat was scorching my body, it now feels somewhat more even battle. It's also the first time we visited the city veach and I must say it's quite nice.

I can safely say that this is the first day I truly feel relaxed. The wind is smoothly blowing out the daylight as we walk back to our hotel on the luminated city beach of our temorary paradise.This day defintely made me feel good, as Jody's stellar track suggest. Wheter it was the dimmed sun, the calming waves, the calm music of a local band or even just the parasol, everything seemed right today.




Alghero 2012 (Day 3): Burner

Where yesterday appeared to be quite cool and even a bit chilly, the sun struck insanely hard today. I got a bit more than I asked for and I'm feeling like a grilled sandwhich. After some water and shadows I felt much better though! One track that didn't leave my mind was Nigel Good's remox for Soundprank's burner featured on Silk Royal 02. As I was a little burned myself, Soundprank's flamy melody accompanied by Nigel's reworked beats helped me through the sunny suffering. The beach we stayed on was amazing as well. Between the rocks, chrystal clear water and pearl white beach, you could hear the cricketts rjrirp gently in the wind. It was truly a paradise in mini format.







Alghero 2012 (Day 2): Red Sea, Red Sky

It's the first night in the hotel and it was quite nice. It appears to be in the centre of the town, that feels as tropical as the airport. The beach is one step away and palm trees are everywhere you look. It feels home already! Today we're going to explore the town a little and visit the two biggest beaches by bike. Very curious if they are as goid as they appeared to be on the pictures!

Never seen such beautiful water in my life before! The oceanfloor is vivid white and even more clear than the water. The sun didnt show his face untill the evening though. But what an striking appearance it was!




The sunset is famous in this region and now I know why. The absolutely stunning view with it's colourful backsey of Alghero is not something thatI will forget. What a view!
