Snack bar Maragnani between the towns of Valledoria and La Ciaccia near Castelsardo. A special place for several reasons.
It is our fourth time here. We love the place and its surroundings. We love the hospitality of the owners. It is a feeling of being like at home. This camper park is cozy and unpretentious.
Three flags are waving high above the entrance. Italian, Brazilian and Sardinian.
Italian and Sardinian are here out of the obvious reasons. Why Brazilian, you might ask?
Because the patrons come from Brazil. They are very proud of their origin which shows everywhere.
Tonight the match between the home team of Brazil against Belgium is on.
Everyone will be cheering for Brazil.
There will be a full party tonight.
What am I supposed to do?
Join the crowd or root for the very attractive team of Belgium?
I can do both. Drink my Ichnusa, shout at all the right times and occasions, yet quietly wish that the underdog would win.
This way I will blend perfectly with the crowd. I even have a special outfit prepared.
In the end, the better team will win and our spirit will be high. One way or another.
Ichnusa will be there for everybody.
