June 15th

After an overnight ferry we finally arrived in Sardinia. With that said, we did not waste a minute and went straight to visit the museum in Oblia where we learned about the long and complicated process of restoring objects found in salt water. Next we climbed our first nuraghe, now a mere 17 meters, 8 meters shorter than the original. We were blown away by the size of the rocks and the amazing panoramic views of the countryside from the top. Later in the day, we visited the tombs at S. Andrea Priu. They were built inside caves along the mountainside and served multiple purposes for several cultures throughout the centuries. One of the caves contained layers from prehistoric, Roman, and Byzantine civilizations. It was even more incredible when we learned that Roberto and Andreina had actually conserved the frescoes painted along the walls.
