Best Beach in the Universe !

Today is super windy!
We have finally mastered the moka coffee pot, after three days of trial and error, with a little help from Google !
After an eggy breakfast we decided it was far on windy to sit by the sea and read our books we again took off exploring.  Sardinia is quite a big island, about 200 miles long with beautiful scenery all along its coast.
We had perished the numerous guide books in our condo and were entice by a beach by the name of Teodoro. Today being Monday and the winds being high we rightly thought the beaches would be pretty well deserted.  When we arrived at Teodoro Beach we could hardly believe the expanse of it, it seems to stretch forever in a perfect arc ending in a large mountainous rock.  The wind was whipping up a perfect scenario for the half dozen windsurfers who were extremely adept at keeping themselves upright the length of the beach, turning and zipping back the way they had come. The sand was very fine and very white. The water was many shades of blue and green, so clear it was easy to see the sandbars beneath the surface. I really wish I could describe the incredible beauty of the area, we all agreed it was undoubtedly the finest beach any of us had ever seen. We probably spent an hour walking its length and back, there were a few other people enjoying the wind and water. I think it was with reluctance we got back in the car and continued exploring the coastline.  Observing the flora beside the road I thought I was seeing haystacks until I realized they were moving ever so slightly! They were actually the shaggiest sheep I have ever seen!
Since it was now nearly 2pm and we were feeling hungry .....I was concerned we would be hooped as the Italians would be closing up shop for siesta! We entered the village of Posada and drove around its winding hilly streets.......success an exquisite pizzeria was open and there were half a dozen tables enjoying what looked like very good food. The restaurant was basically open air with a large tented roof and hedges of  pink Bougainville mixed with white jasmine all around the perimeter . A lovely wooden gate with an arc of the hedge growing over top. The tables were clothed in a yellow and turquoise checked tablecloth with orange napkins. Our cameras were in overdrive! We decided to order our main meal of the day and just have appies for dinner at home. Two of us had seafood pasta and two of us had sea bass, which was served complete  with head, tail and bones! Desserts were tiramisu and pannacotta .....both very nice. There was a family dining 'beside us who were finishing their meal and engaged us in conversation.......the "mamma" who looked like your typical elderly Italian grandmother was 95 and she beamed the biggest smile when I bent down beside her to take our photo. The family was made up of relatives from the island and from Toronto. We exchanged information as they wanted to have the picture for "mamma" . Such friendly people.  The host of the restaurant then Brought us all a shot of grappa.....quite delicious! The restaurant was called San Lucia, so if you find yourself in Sardinia it would be an excellent choice. Back on the road again....2plus hours later we find ourslves in Sinsacola, a hilltop town with a huge tower at the top. It was quiet as it had not quite opened up for the evening hours. Driving the twisting coastal roads catching glimpses of the sand and sea never gets old!
It was six pm when we finally arrived back at our "home" ......after a stop at the local supermarcado for water, wine and other necessities.
Th tv went on to check out the French Open, which sadly has been delayed by rain, we watched an entertaining match of an old US open.
Dinner was bruschetta, olives, and chicken drumsticks, prosecco and red vino!
Another fine day in Sardinia. I'm sure we will all be reliving the wild and windy beach we were so fortunate to spend time at today. It is one we will definitely be visiting again before we depart Italy.
