Cagliari in Sardinia – 9 October 2025

Cagliari is the capital city of the Italian island of Sardinia and is an old fashioned town. We spent most of our time wandering around the narrow streets. Scamp wanted to climb up to the hilltop Castello, a medieval walled quarter situated high over the rest of the town. By the time we got to the top we were exhausted, but the views round the city were amazing.

Things we’ll remember:

  • The climb up to the Castello.
  • Scamp got a silver ring from a wee jewellers shop in the city.
  • The heat in the city.
  • Watching a rather ugly ship berthing next to us, The Virgin ship Scarlet Lady. I preferred our smaller ship.
  • Trees everywhere in the city.
  • Hills everywhere too. Good exercise.

PoD was the view to the front of our ship taken from our cabin.
