We knew that we had a short layover in Amsterdam but we didn’t imagine how many other people were in the same situation. The lines at Passport Control were very long and we had just over an hour to get through the line and make it to the far away gate before final boarding. But we made it! The flight to Cagliari was pleasant as the KLM Flight Attendants were really nice and served a delicious slice of cake for dessert after an egg salad sandwich.
The Cagliari Airport was larger than we expected and easily manageable. The Rail Station in Cagliari is within walking distance of the airport and only a 6 minute ride from the airport into the main part of the city – the tickets were only 1.40 Euro each.
We’ve had very little sleep and we’re feeling weary but after we checked into our hotel, we popped out for a snack and a first look at the city. We REALLY like it here! This Sunday evening, the streets were filled with families and people of all ages out for a stroll, a bistro dinner, a slice of pizza or gelato. It’s lively!
There are cute cafés and bistros that we look forward to checking out.
In summary, we’re here, we’re happy and we’re very sleepy. We can hardly wait to check out the city tomorrow!
