These Nuraghe number in the 30,000. They are scattered all over the island and some date back to 600BC
I posted a photo a while ago, hoping to post some more throughout my trip. Alas it was not to be, with too much to do and far too little internet access to be able to do it (God I missed google). I've finally arrived in Singapore (almost 3 weeks later) and have a consistent internet connection for the time being. I am also well aware of how dusty my lenses are so apologies for the dust bunnies.
The lovely Clare R and I hired a trusty Lancia for our tour of Sardinia prior to our conference call in the south. As lovely as the Lancia was to drive, I think we both wished we had an open topped roadster. We wended our way up the western coast thinking that an island 200km long and 100km wide shouldn't take that long to explore. Boy were we wrong! Trying to negotiate the "scenic" mountain passes took the best part of a day just to work our way to the top of the ranges!
We passed through some scenic mountain towns and rugged countryside.
I must admit the Western Beaches are spectacular, every bit as impressive as any we'd see in Australia. On our way north along the western coast of Sardinia to a town in the north called Alghero we passed through a riverside hamlet named Bosa.

I really don't have consistent net access to be able to spend the time taking photos might have to wait till I get back or at least slow down.
So who's a happy little vegemite with their new D2x firmware?
