Meandering past Masau

The road down to Masau is the definition of meandering! What beautiful vistas that pop into view, only to be obscured again by the next face of the sheer rock walls. This was much loved by the motorbikers; we felt we were in a posse on this road.

After a well-earned gelato or three, we rode past Masau to take the road towards Iglesias. There awaited Kiran's surprise birthday gift for me.

We ended up on a section of the Camino Minerario again, which actually went past old mining furnaces and brick works. We picked up a couple of keepsake pebbles from the Funtana Coperto (copper fountain) for our mineral collections. Without visiting any of the museums, we had experienced more of this mining country and understood some of their hardships on these wild slopes.
