Sinis Peninsula

This morning was a slower pace. Looked like it was going to rain, but warmed up quite a bit by afternoon. We wandered around Oristano, getting lost a few times. Looked like kids went to school in the morning as they were everywhere before 9am, on a Saturday.  It was interesting that by 1:30pm things really quietened down. This was siesta time. It was even more noticeable in this sleepy little town. We then took a cab out to the Sinis Peninsula, which is where our biking tour starts. The hotel we are staying in is not close to anything, so I guess there is no decision as to where we will eat tonight. We are just awaiting our briefing and bike allocation. Met a New Zealand couple who are biking as well, and not sure how many are going to do the same thing. A little bit of apprehension has set in as to whether we can do this, but there is no backing out now. Once we get on our bikes, it will all fall in place.
