Anyway other than that brief period of nicety there are a few things to be said.
I did a head count in the problem session a few minutes ago, and there were 27 male participants and 6 female ones.
They have not been providing nearly enough nice drinking water, and the tap water here tastes like terrible chlorine.
I went swimming at the beach yesterday, and the water was really beautifully clear and calm; it was warmer than I'm used to (NorCal) but not hot, and still a bit cool to stay in for a long time.
The food was not terribly good at first (cold rice and sandwiches?!) but it has been getting better--today for lunch there was a pasta in alfredo and chicken (among other possibilities: bow ties in marinara, kebobs), and the chicken was covered in chicken broth that dripped onto the plate and was AMAZING for dipping the bread into.
There hasn't been a lot of variety of vegetation, I've mostly been eating salads because that's all that there is, except that the vegetarians are getting more variety there.
Tonight we're going on a historic guided tour of Alghero, and after that is "Alghero by night" which I believe means "going out on the town wooo" which hopefully will be fun?
Last night we had "Sardinian Suits testing" which confused a lot of people until they specified that it was actually meant to be "sweets testing" which was a bit better. There was a champagne-like beverage which tasted mostly like a light Chardonnay and some cheese filled things and a bunch of fruit cookies and flavored macaroons but overall it was not as much chocolate as I would have liked.
I'm going to head off toward the beach to get some sun and pick up some post cards.
