October 1st Villasimius & Solanas

Today was predicted to be stormy and wet and so it turned out with some good interludes of sunshine but always plenty of wind.  We had guessed that the town of Villasimius was not too special and so had avoided it thus far but we decided to walk in and possibly be pleasantly surprised this morning and catch the hotel shuttlebus back.  Unfortunately we did not find anything of interest, we were disappointed, had a drink and two hours were plenty long enough.

 We returned to the hotel for our snack and then decided to drive along the coast to another bay Solanas which was much more attractive although the sea was in a pretty violent state.  When you turned round from the beach it was obvious that there was some pretty serious weather going on in the hills!

Having had some very fresh air at Solanas  we then stopped again on our way back.  It was a viewing point near Capo Boi and had another stroll with more pics.  Some of the roads are very twisty and we slowly made our way back to the hotel where we stayed in the car until some torrential rain had passed.

    Looks like you are having fun and finding new things to do and places to explore. The beach looks good for beachcombing and the rough seas will bring in interesting stuff!
    We are all fine, with good weather
    The film festival started yesterday with three excellent films. 9 more to go!
    Lots of love
