Malta

We've now had 2 weeks in Malta, and our time here is half complete already! It's been a fabulous time here. A place to relax after much chaos of trying to get ready for this trip, and also a time with great friends that we get to hang out with everyday! We like Malta!

Ben usually starts his day getting up early, walking around the neighborhood taking pictures, visiting the locals and gettin a donought like what he had when growing up. It's no Timmies, but he likes. I choose to sleep in until blinded by sunlight, then enjoy coffee with everyone. No hurried times here, it's great. There's lots of sightseeing to do here as well as some beaches and snorkelling. Our friends Kari and Marty also have a bunch of friends here from their previous visits so we have lots of social time with their friends as well. Food here is fabulous, produce just tastes so good here, not quite like home!

Today we're off to a beach to try our snorkel gear, then Kari and I are out for dinner. We now have internet access from our "flat" so we'll try to keep up with the blog and pics!
Chow!!

Only in Malta.

I saw this sign on what they call the beach. The yellow rail on the left is a handrail for getting in and out of the sea not for boats.So my question is what are they towing ?

Lost in Malta...

Hello all from Malta.Here we are with Kari and Marty from Gull Lake enjoying our first dinner in Malta
Here is our bed in Malta, and a mighty fine bed it is.
Be carefull about the nudity of your lighting they get very upset about it here.
This is one our views that we were greeted with upon our arrival on the island. Not bad huh? The weather here is very hot in the mid twenties and apparently we are here in the fall and the weather in the summer is around the mid to high thirties with hardly any breeze. The island is beautiful and can be really harsh. The people here are terrific and the food awww soooo good. When you get here you have to try pizztizeria ( pea cake or cheese cake) I am telling you it is great. The island is very small compared to Canada but you could get really lost here. The villages around here were built in the olden days to confuse and slow down invading armies. So bring a map that is up to date!!!! Imperitive on the latter. You never know what is going to change on the island. The only constants are the chuches and ruins.
