CATCHING OUR DREAM Mediterranean Sea Ep 150
- What do you see, darling?
- There's a little village with a tower
- It's pretty, it's very small
It has an old control tower, for pirates
a white church in front of the sea
and a port with a dock also old
The town is walled
It has an ancient stone wall
Here is Capo Comino
We're almost at the beach of Capo Comino
It's right in front of us
Now we enter the area that we will navigate
south of Tavolara island
where there are no more islands to protect us from the Levante winds
and above all from the Southeast
For a few days, on the boat it won't be very nice
but it's the price we have to pay for being in this beautiful area
Here we can see Capo Comino clearly
and in front of it the small islet
Look at that beautiful landscape!
Guys, we're in Capo Comino
in eastern Sardinia,
is one of the areas where we had never been
even after many trips through the Mediterranean
We have discovered that near where we are
there is a plane that crashed, a long time ago
it is a Corsair war plane
that crashed in 1963
Imagine the years he has spent in water
is a type of plane that was used in the Second World War
a combat unit, called the Corsair F4U
And now we will see if we find it, what is left of the plane
Here we have a top-level explorer
of the first level, on board the boat
who I know will be in charge of diving to the depths
and see how the plane is
- Ha, ha, ha..... funny you are!
- Are you the explorer?
- It says that I will submerge to the depths
- Diver! .......Diver disembarking
- Here I come
with my great team, can you see?
- Let's go exploring, Josep
- Are we going to explore the depths of the sea?
-Yes
By the indicated location and these two red buoys
maybe it's there
Isolated danger, sunken aircraft
- I'll go and have a look
- Ready?
We are searching the area
I'm in the dinghy dragging Noemi
and she keeps looking with her mask on
to see if we can find it
We've finally located it!
but we had to use the GPS
because otherwise it would have been impossible
From what Noemi has seen, she says it is very deteriorated
that it is very destroyed
- Was the operation a success?
- The operation was a success!
- Plane found and downed!
- Yes, hahaha... I really liked it
We leave Capo Comino, a fantastic place
I guess we'll have a rough night
because with this wind it will have raised waves
and it is not protected but we will try to resist
to record it in the morning
Against wind and tide, heading South to Sardinia
All this is the Gulf of Orosei
- What are you doing?
- Working, all day with work
Guys, we've just entered the Gulf of Orosei!
The famous Gulf with some
of the most famous in Sardinia
It's going to be very difficult, because it's windy
and the sea is not calm
and in this area, the coves have no protection
we will probably have a bit of a rough night
we are arriving at Cala Luna at nightfall
as we planned
to arrive when the waves have calmed down
we'll soon pick up the sail
I've dropped the anchor and
We're here in Cala Luna!
Look at those waves, look at those waves... Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh ... hold on, hold on
We're not going to sleep all night!
- I will, ha ha ha
We had a dream.
A dream that seemed impossible to us.
We dreamed of sunrises, adventures and starry skies.
We dreamed of a journey across our sea,
through our beloved Mediterranean.
And after one hundred and fifty movies documenting our history,
After so many years sailing its waters,
we now feel that we are catching our dream.
Cala Luna is a wonderful example of this
In front of this majestic scenery,
we can feel all the beauty and strength of nature.
In each new sunrise, in every new awakening
aboard the My Life,
We feel immensely fortunate,
simply for being able to be here.
to be able to seize the day.
We are driving on this curvy road
because we are going to look for the road to Etna
the famous volcano of Sicily, Etna
which is the oldest volcano in all of Europe
what you can see in the background is Mount Etna
where you can see the clouds
It's impressive to look at, this thick forest
and you can see perfectly how far the lava has come,
and this is the last tree that was burnt
What a contrast! Here the black lava
Look, look
Look, you can see perfectly where the lava came down
even the broken tree trunks that came down
it's impressive, the landscape...
Here in the middle of the black lava we can see
a ski lift because in winter all this
is full of snow, it snows often
this volcano is over 3,000 meters high
Look up there! you can see it perfectly
the crater of the last eruption
- Ah, yes!
Look, there at the highest point, can you see it? the highest point of Etna
you can see how smoke is coming out
and sometimes whiter smoke
Up here the temperature has changed a lot the temperature
It's always 10 degrees cooler down there
- Wow, 10 degrees less!
We're going to eat in this restaurant
that's a butcher's and in the back they cook the meat for you
- Yes, come
here they make a set menu for everyone you don't have to choose
for starters there is an “Antipasti”
and then a variety of meats from the butcher grilled “alla griliata”
We said that we would eat little today, but it won't be possible
- You said we were going to eat little today, hahaha
is the menu here...
