Eating out - Restaurant Sandalia, Nuoro, Italy
The word to describe this restaurant is: basic.
The food was OK, but nothing extraordinary. The prices are as high as the restaurants from the city center, but the food is not as good.

Trip to Castelsardo, Sardinia
From the viewing point where we stopped, it looked like a nice little village, but when we entered the village, there was nothing to catch the tourist´s eye.
