Nebida - Calasetta

Today was going to be an easier day. Only 43.5 ams and 2 ferry rides. Some rolling hills, but nowhere like yesterday. Before leaving Nebida, which was our overnight stop we stopped to get a different view of Pan di Zucchero and the mines. We then rode for 24 kilometers to the town of Portoscuso. This little town had a beautiful harbor and was a lot like St. Margherita in the Riviera of Italy. We caught the ferry here to go to the island S. Pietro and to the little town of Calaforte. We had about a 13 kilometer loop to take, seeing flamingos and the salt mines. Beautiful countryside and lovely beaches. Then we took another ferry to the next island, Calesseta. This little place looks like it could be in the Greek Island with it's whitewashed houses. Onto our hotel, which is once again in the countryside but very close to the beach. All in all a relaxing day after the previous two hard days. Tomorrow we get to discover more of this island before going back to the mainland.
