MOTHYA ISLAND

 Off we go this am to explore  Mothya Island. Over 3000 years ago the Phoenicians la died on this place and built a community. They had fresh water and could see forever if enemies approached. We walked all over and saw the remains of the old Phoenician settlements. We had a very nice outdoor picnic under the trees, and then drove to the salt flats of the Stagnone Lagoon and had a tour and demo of how important these last flats have been for centuries. 

Tonight after dinner, we had an interesting talk from the hospitality manager about what goes on behind the scenes on a ship. 
We pulled up anchor and set sail for the island of Sardinia, which we will reach in the early am. It was a very calm sail.
