Cape Inch Hotel Qawra

I've just popped over to Malta for a day &amp; a bit (as you do!) to say a quick hello / goodbye to my parents (and bring them lots of goodies over for the last time in a while).<br><br>The weather is a little warmer than the UK, but not as warm as it's going to be in a week's time (ha ha ha).<br><br>Anyway, I'll keep this blog short so ciao for now!<br><br>Anita x

... Again it had the most amazing city walls, a well preserved Gothic church and a magnificent Cathedral. Ryan&#8217;s neck was quite sore here so we decided to indulge and take a horse and cart ride around all the old cobble streets of the city, in every city since, when we see a horse and cart, Ryan declares he has a sore neck!!!!!! We so understand why many of the British population choose this distination as a holiday destination.<br><br>Tunisia ...

... duped by the online descriptions that make the walk into the city sound rough.<br><br> Our tour guide is a dowdy English woman who is wearing a flower print dress and speaks with a breathlessly nasal English accent. &#8220;Thish ish a shtashtue of Shaint Jamesh, and-a&#8230;.&#8221; she speaks like this as we follow her along the cobblestone streets lined with stone buildings. Our first stop is the Upper Baracca Gardens, a ...

... in French and kept pointing to my backpack so I just gave him our own homegrown version of the finger wag that we use from time to time and walked off. What is it with them? These French people just need to handle their own business and leave me alone.<br><br>Across a narrow inlet is a town called Vittoriosa and it looked interesting enough for me to figure out how to get there. Somehow I managed to find another Maltese version of a chicken ...

... the highlight being the walled medieval city of Mdina, the former capital of Malta, founded in the 1600's. Mdina was built on top of a sizable hill with great views of the island. I got off the bus for an hour and wandered the narrow winding streets, getting lost a couple of times, but it wasn't big enough to lose your way. Back to the bus and out to the beach areas of the island. These areas were very touristy, as the Brits flock here in the summer for the sun and ...

... s már három napja nem jutottam le a strandra. A végén még elkezd kopni a barnaság... majd teszek ellene valamikor... Vallettában már voltam párszor, de most fordítani is. Elvileg. De kiderült, hogy a férj francia és nem nagyon beszél magyarul, viszont a feleség perfekt francia, úgyhogy mentek a francia csoporttal, én meg szórakozásból az angollal. Nincs megállás, kedden, csütörtökön túra, szerdán meg szállodalátogatás. Pénteken meg újra járat. A hétvége meg alakul. A ...

... very long time. However when discussing with Lillian she suggested I write the letters in Maltese as practice and I thought that was a fantastic idea! Now that is going to be a mission! Tonight was the night that my cousins Lillian, Michael and his wife Josette had planned to take me out for a night on the town in Paceville. We had talked about it for some time so by the time it came around we were pumped. We started with dinner at Michael and Josette's house ...

... were large enough but the bathrooms need more space and they were air conditioned. we had a balcony you could sit on and had sea views. The catacoombes are worth a visit and most places you go there is a lot of history to see there is a fort called Rinella at Kalkara where during the day they have a re-enacment on and some people can fire a fieldgun (canon) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Rinel la

... foot. Only about 100 meters down the road we came into chaos. The entire intersection connecting Floriana, Sliema, and the Three Cities was under about a meter of water! I couldn't believe my eyes. I thought it was kind of funny, but then I realised, there were people really stuck here, and real damage was being done. We headed of along the waterfront for a short distance, where we stopped to ask a police officer the best way to get to Sliema. He replied, " It dependa if you ...

... posture have provoked many scholars to assign her unusual importance in the culture. The tour came to end and we left the prehistoric darkness for the startling sunshine of modern day Malta. Soon Joey was taking us back to our hotel near Valetta as we laughingly recalled the day's events. "So, it's goodbye, it's see you soon, it's have a good time." He said as we climbed out and headed back into the hotel. Gozo: Malta's Little Sister The history of Gozo is ...
