The majority of this week so far
has been spent at sea, and it has been fantastic! On Monday, we went on a
cruise around Villasimius. We took a rather large sailboat to a couple of
beaches that were great for exploring, ate a delicious lunch on board which
(surprisingly) included pasta that had been cooked below decks, and jumped off
the side of the boat countless times. It was great fun, despite the lightning
and thunderstorms that were looming on the horizon- which made all of our hair
stick up on our heads!
On Tuesday, we had presentations
from a couple of guest speakers. The first was on End of Life Vehicles in
Italy, which was especially interesting for me because that was the subject
that my group and I had chosen for the first project, and the second presentation
was about remediation of old mining sites in Sardinia.
Today was our last Wednesday in
Sardinia (!) and we spent the entire day at the beach in Teurredda. Personally,
I spent a lot of my beach time making tunnels in the sand with Annalisa’s kids,
and was very grateful for the delicious homemade picnic food that we were
given. The rest of our (final) week here will be a busy one for sure, the
details of which will be explained in my final blog post on Sunday!
