The Island of Malta with Colin, Adrian, Pat & Wendy

Majestic Malta here we come!  What a wonderful time we had exploring the sights of this stunning country.

 
 
Our hotel was beautiful, the perfect base for our exciting stay!  We enjoyed a stunning leisurely walk along the sea front at Bugibba, St Pauls Bay.  The views out to sea were gorgeous and we all loved looking down into the crystal clear water.
 
 
 
 
 
We took an open top bus ride to Sliema, where we boarded our boat for the 2 Harbours Cruise.  We loved the trip which showed us the beauty of two stunning natural harbours and their ten creeks. 
 We enjoyed listening to a detailed commentary of the history of Malta going back to 1565! It was truly fascinating!
 
 
 
We toured the island on another open top bus and took in the impressive sights of the island's capital, Valletta. 
 We hopped off the bus to explore one f Europe's finest examples of an ancient walled city, Medina. 
It was an inspiring day!
 
 
 
We watched the firing of the cannon at the breath-taking Barrakka Gardens.  We bussed it to Valletta and soaked up it's many historic palaces, churches and shops. 
 
 
The charming fishing village of Marsaxlokk stole our hearts as we watched the colourful boats bobbing up and down in the harbour. 
 
 
 
Our evenings were spent eating delicious local food and dancing our hearts out to fantastic live music at local bars - what fun!
