There's a light breeze,
How nice!

Fresh air!

- What a lookout!

- What do you see, darling?

- There's a little village
with a tower

- It's pretty,
it's very small

This village, that I've just looked
with the binoculars

is called Santa Lucía

It is more to the south
of the village of La Caletta

and it looks very pretty and cozy

This village is 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

that I suppose was to
protect them from the waves

Here is Capo Comino

Capo Comino, what a name! , hahaha (in Spanish Comino is cumin)

We're almost at the beach
of Capo Comino

It's right in front of us, it's really beautiful
with white sand

Oh, I can't wait to get there!

- And have a swim!

- Yes, and anchor with the tent

- It looks like the water is very clean

- Is it very clean?....even better!

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

in the background we have Capo Comino

which marks the entrance
to the Gulf of Orosei

that protects this beach of dunes

from the southeast winds

we'll be protected in that corner

and enjoy....

- Right, dear?

Enjoy the beauty of the landscape,

and the beauty of this creature

- I see three normal-sized sailboats

and one super-large sailboat

I think there are not many
boats anchored

- I think there are not many because
it must move a little

- We'll keep our fingers crossed
that we'll be OK

- Otherwise we'll have to suffer a little

- Are you ready to drop anchor?

- No, because I have to connect the
anchor winch

- Is it OK?

- Yes

- I've done it perfectly

- How beautiful!

- Very beautiful

- It's really hot, Josep!

We have to put the tent quickly!

- Come on, quickly,
hurry up!

and then into the water

- Here we are

- Very good

- I'm going to bake some potatoes
and fish

- Really?

- This looks really good

- Let's see... Oh! ... potatoes and garlic

-Yes

-And now in the oven

- Look what I bought yesterday

- Oh, what a fish!

- Yes, I'm going to clean it up

- I'll have to wait a while,

until the potatoes
cook

and then I'll put the fish
to cook

as this is a big one,

I think I'll salt it and
put it in now, Josep

- As you wish

- Is it ready?

- Yes, I'm going to get it now,
the fish and potatoes

- Wow, this
looks really good

- I hope it doesn't burn

- Wow, what a beast!

- It's a luxury! Eating this
here anchored

Here we can see Capo Comino clearly

and in front of it the small islet

Look at that beautiful landscape!

- And all the beaches are full of dunes

- The mountains, the dunes....
turquoise water

- Come on, let's go for a swim

Look how high the dunes are

that there are even trees in the dunes

there are junipers and pines

The dunes are huge!

Look at all the junipers here!

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

and we are visiting it
in the middle of August

but this area of eastern Sardinia

is wonderful because it has
beautiful beaches

with white sand, dunes

and with pine forests in the sand

even if there is only sand, the pines grow
and make an impressive shade ...

this is like paradise

As in this area
there are very large beaches

you always find a lonely place,
without people

But 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

because from '63 until now

the time the plane has been in the water

so I don't know what will be left

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

I will dive a few meters,
but not to the depths

- Maybe it's very deep,
you try it

- I don't go down many meters

According to our calculations

we have anchored about 100 meters
from the plane

and we have a rough location
that has been shared with us

and we are going to see if we find it

- Diver! .......Diver disembarking

- Here I come

with my great team,
can you see?

- Uh! how it moves!

- Let's go exploring, Josep

- Are we going to explore
the depths of the sea?

-Yes

-I will guide you to the
lost treasure!

By the indicated location and
these two red buoys

maybe it's there

These two red buoys
should indicate the plane

Isolated danger,
sunken aircraft

Now the explorer should go down
to see if it is here

- Yes, yes... I'm coming now

- Let's see if you can see it

- We have a hyperbaric chamber,

in case an emergency decompression
is required

- I'll go and have a look

- Ready?

- Come on, let's go

It seems that this is not the area

seeing these two buoys we thought
that they were signaling the plane

so that the boats
would not drop anchor on top of it

but it seems not.

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

- Yes, because you told me that
it's a light aircraft, because otherwise ....

- Now when you go down, take a good look at it

- Was the operation a success?

- The operation was a success!

- Plane found and downed!

- Yes, hahaha... I really liked it

- Come up

- Very good

- What a good job you've done of
expeditionary diver

- Did it record okay?

- I don't know, we'll see

- But what do you think?

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

The Capo Comino lighthouse

Against wind and tide,
heading South to Sardinia

- We're doing great!

- Let's see if we can get there early

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

As expected,
the sea is calming down

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

we're 3 or 4 miles from Cala Luna

we hope to arrive in daylight
to drop anchor

- Are we arrived?

- Yes, and the waves have gone down, Josep!

- That's great!

- To Furl the Genoa

- How many are there?

- 6 sailboats

- Only 6!

- I think the sail needs to be furl

- Furl it, Josep

- We're almost there

- Yes, we're coming to Cala Luna!

From what I can see, guys,
this stretch of coastline from Cala Luna

is full of caves
I can see lots of them

Look, 3, 4, 5, 6.... in this part
I've counted 10 or 12

I've dropped the anchor and

We're here in Cala Luna!

It's getting dark and
look at the landscape we have

all full of caves

- It looks beautiful, Josep,

but there's overbooking here

- Yes, yes

- Here we have
overbooking of the rich

and that's at night

and there are usually few of them
to sleep in the coves

and there are all the sailboats.

Imagine what it will be like during the day
with the tourist boats

Wow, you'll see

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

- Let's see if these mega yachts
stop the waves for me

- Or invite you to dinner

- Those ones are having dinner

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.

Guys, let's go and see
this magnificent cave!

- Look at that beautiful light up there

- Yes!

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

yesterday they explained to us that
the last major eruption

was in 2002

is what the owner told us
of the hotel where we are

and recommended that we go to the area

that we are trying to find

precisely from the last eruption

where the contrast is very visible

between the area where there were
many trees and the area of lava

someone told us was an area
where there were some buildings

and that it destroyed them.

Let's go and see,

we've taken the day to
go on a day trip by car

to see the countryside and
the interior of Sicily

what you can see in the background is Mount Etna

where you can see the clouds, up there

We have to consider,

that Etna is a volcano
that is active

it is a dormant volcano that is active

with low activity

it's not erupting

We can see that the interior of Sicily

is the typical Mediterranean landscape

with many olive trees
we also see vineyards

and with vegetation typical of
a very warm weather

looking very good and
very large, in other words,

that the climate here
is one of the warmest all year round

because if it were a place
where in winter

the temperature would drop a lot
these plants would not adapt

- I saw llamas on the way

- Llamas?
But is this Sicily?

- They belong to a particular person,
look how beautiful!

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

and there are ski slopes

this volcano is over
3,000 meters high

Behind me there is
an ancient crater

- Can you see the hole?

- Yes

Etna has been active for so many years!
that's why there are so many craters

Look up there!
you can see it perfectly

the crater of the last eruption

- Ah, yes!

Look, here are the remains
of some of the buildings

that the lava swept away
in the last eruption

hotel and restaurant structures...

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

Here we can see perfectly
the forest that was full of green trees

Up here the temperature has changed a lot
the temperature

It's always
10 degrees cooler down there

- Wow, 10 degrees less!

It's appreciated because it was very hot

Look at that house,
it looks like something out of a horror movie

it's abandoned in the middle of the forest

- Are we going to explore this cabin?

- No, I'm not going to explore it

- You wouldn't explore it?

- In case a man lives here and
he's a serial killer, right?

- I wouldn't explore it even if it were daytime

- Not even if it were daytime?

- We'll come at night
with a torch

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

- That looks good

- Either this table is too high
or you are too short

- Yes, the table is too high

The waitress who is very nice
has already attended to us

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”

For starters, some very good appetizers
with products from the butcher's

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...

- The sausages are supposed to
be a starter?!

- What is all this, darling?

- My goodness

- This is enough food for 4 days!

- There are 2 hamburgers, lamb,
ribs and leg of lamb, 2 skewers

- This is to burst!

- What an exaggeration!
