In the morning we made a trip to Super-U where we stocked up on milk (which took some doing).
We spent most of the day walking on La Revellata peninsula. We set off on foot from Calvi on the Porto road. Following the coast, we found cove after cove and had lunch (including wine!) in one. Just after lunch the weather improved and we had solid sunshine as we made our way to the Phare. We met a pack of military runners just after we turned inland, then climbed up to the ruins of the old lighthouse with views of both sides of the headland. We made our way home under increasingly threatening clouds, but it didn't rain.
We had dinner at U Casanu and it was gorgeous. Jeremy had duck and Helen mussels and local sausages (figatellu) with eggs.
