PRIVATE PLANE

What is the best way to travel back to Prague from Sardinia?

Via private jet, of course.

The interior

el baño

in-flight movie

equipped with a flight attendant....

to bring us plenty of snacks.

I might have felt a little bit like the team on Criminal Minds at the end of the show when they discuss the case and share deep thoughts. Where the heck is my Shemar Moore?!

I played a lot of Top Gun on the Nintendo when I was little, so I convinced the pilot that qualified me to sit in the cockpit and help them land the plane.

(no, that's not a bad spray on tan...I really left that color after 2 weeks of Italian sun)

Touchdown in Prague at the elusive Terminal 3

No lines, no security check, no hassles...

can we do that again, please??

PIZZA, PASTA, AND GELATO...oh my!

We came. We saw. We ate.

No trip to Italy is complete without some good eats.

First, the traditional Sardinian dishes:

suckling pig

crispy bread

lobster salad Catalana style

(my fave) the cookies

then the obvious dishes:

spaghetti

pizza

gelato

and fresh fish

all of which comes with fantastic service

and Italian love

**No scales were harmed in the consumption of this food**

GO KART DRIVERS

One final excursion before heading back to Prague took us to the local Go Kart track. We had the place all to ourselves for 2 hours to race as much as we wanted.

Helmet up!

The race results are in:

The guy who runs the place is a racer himself

(and he has his own brand of chips)

AQUA DREAMing

Today's adventure in Sardegna (since I'm becoming so tan on this trip, I thought I'd start speaking in Italian) took us to the local water park. Aquadream.

We went without the mothers so William would be able to ride the biggest slides...like this one

and eat junk food.

Kaja had a blast as a first time on water slides

Maybe I was enjoying the tall, dark, and handsome six packs

...and I'm not talking about the Pepsi products!

It was a slidetastic day!

SNORKEL ME

 This morning we met the Orso Diving team in Porto Quato for an afternoon of snorkeling.

Our guide, Luca, was kind enough to help those who were a little nervous

Divers:

I tried to find Nemo...

 We spotted an octopus. It was too fast for me to get a photo,
but squirted lots of ink for me to swim through.

We also found some rock fortresses

which we left the boat to explore

Of course, no boat trip is complete without the pirate flag

HOT COSTUME TIME

Since I missed the 4th of July in America again, it is time for me to get ready for my next favorite holiday: Halloween. The truth is out...I'm a girl and I love dressing up.

I found a fantastic site with great prices called Costume SuperCenter. 

They have some hot costumes for 2012.

Some people choose costumes that reflect their personality. As you might have guessed, I have a passion for traveling. Two summers ago, I was able to visit Spain and I fell in love with the culture, food, dance, people, language, and just about everything about the country. So I checked out the International costume collection (they really have a section for most all of your interests), and I found this Spanish Mariachi Mamacita Costume:

The jacket, bikini top, pants, hat, and sash are all included. I already have some mariachis from a Mexico trip so I just need to find the perfect shoes and I am ready to dance (or bull fight) the night away. I decided on this one because I can wear it for Halloween and then maybe a Cinco de Mayo costume party the next year. What do you think...can I pull it off?

OK now for the women who say they don't want to wear a sexy or hot costume, there are plenty of modest costumes as 

well as some for kids and men. So start planning so you can win the prize for best costume at your next party!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. 

CHARMING PORTO CERVO

If I had to describe Porto Cervo in one word, it would be charming.

This little port town is ridiculously beautiful to walk around.

(I've heard the night life is awesome here, but not so much when you're with the kiddies)

We watched some yachts park,

enjoyed the balconies,

shopped (so posh), smelled the roses,

enjoyed the art

and of course...ate gelato.
