Location: Sardegna's North Coast
Today, like most of the other days aboard this beautiful vessel, was absolutely epic. An early rise for breakfast in one of the most beautiful locations in all the Mediterranean, here on the northern bay of Sardinia. The day was planned for the T. First, we had the Argo Olympics, which was quite a good time. We ran, dug, and swam, and we even hung from the bow spirit for as long as we could, all while holding onto an egg, which was the tricky partlunch, which was quite a good gumbo. After lunch, we had time to set up the boom swing while some others, including myself, instead decided to clean one of the grey water holding tanks, which had quite a pungent odor, to say the least. Those who were working on the grey water tanks had a very welcomed swim afterward to clean off. Dinner was a long day in the making. We had chicken marinated in BBQ sauce and spices for around breakfast, and at lunch, we decided that we were going to braise the chicken in order to make pulled chicken sandwiches. After a full day of cooking in broth, the chicken became so tender that we barely had to shred it. After the shredding, it went right back in the oven to moisten with some sauce and some water. It was one of the first times I had ever braised chicken, but it turned out fantastically. Dinner was a hit, and it was accompanied by a wonderful sun-brewed tea. In all, today was a fantastic day and a great ending to a fantastic summer. Just as we began to depart on our last passage back to Rome, we were struck with a jolt of luck and caught the Maltese Falcon, the largest privately owned sailing yacht in the world, setting sail with the moon overhead and the sun moments from setting. This scene cannot be replicated in any way.
