St. Aristarcus Street, St. Pauls Bay Bugibba, Island of Malta, Malta, SBP 02, 356-21577775
I've just popped over to Malta for a day & 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
Mellieha, Island of Malta, Malta oltona... his home there. Every day at 12.00pm the military perform a cannon fire salute, Robyn reckons she had prepared herself for it, but nearly jumped out of her skin when it actually happened. When we visited another church with the largest dome in the city we meet a lovely 86 year old Maltese man sitting as a guardian at the door. He found we were from NZ and proceeded to tell us how he had fought with the British against the Germans and Italians in ...
Malta, Malta sewtersojourns... to begin disembarkation. Our tour is almost the last one to be called and we walk out the door to the fourth floor deck, put on the stickers with our bus and tour number, swipe our cruise ID cards and board the bus. From the ship it’s hard to tell how to enter the walled city but once we are sitting inside the bus we can see a ramp that enters the city. A lot of people are walking on the paved sidewalk beside the road and I ...
Valletta, Island of Malta, Malta hiwhthi... I was not a Maltese expert. I just let it go because I realize that you can't change people, just how you react to them. <br><br>On one of the buses into Valletta I randomly sat down next to a teenage guy who was reading a private pilot manual. I asked him if he was taking flying lessons and found out he was about to have his first solo. He wondered how I knew so much about flying and I told him I do it for a living. I have never seen someone ...
Malta, Malta atlpilot36... least now I know that I am TB free, and I have a nifty souvenir X-ray to prove it. Fridays I have no class! Yay! So I have a four day weekend. Unfortunately, Peter and my four day weekends do not match. He has Thursdays and Fridays and I have Mondays and Fridays off. We'll work something out though. We've been talking about going to Vienna soon. We've spent a lot of time at a nearby grocery store called Smart supermarket. It is fairly cheap and has pretty ...
Attard, Lija, Valletta, Sliema, Marsaxlokk, Malta avalon_48... mitől), meg mindent ellepett a homok (a kocsikat mindenképp).Viszont az utcán végre el lehetett viselni a klímát. De ennek vége. Most csak 30 körül van a max hőmérséklet, amit sűrűn meg is vitatnak a helyiek, mégiscsak itt voltak a britek, akik imádják ezt a témát. Programajánló: vasárnap a mindenféle festák mellett Love Parade lesz Vallettában... azon gondolkozok, hol van ott széles és egyenes út felvonulni. Lehet, hogy lezárják a főutat??
St Julians, Malta viskiki... a few nights staying at my Uncle Leo and Aunty Julie's house. They have a spare room and being spoiled in a nice home with some home cooked meals before leaving for Sicily was to my liking as well! Another thing I wanted to take advantage of whilst living here was to get some assistance working through the lessons in my Maltese language book. Cousin Lillian can actually speak 4 languages quiet fluently and Maltese is perhaps her best. I am really enjoying learning Maltese. My Uncle Leo's ...
Gzira, Malta andrew.galea... with a big box of old photos, and I mean old. It was incredible. Photos dating back to my great grandparents. Pictures of my grand parent's wedding, mum and dad when they were young, the lot. There was also a photo of me when I was just 3 weeks old! I had never seen it before (mum often writes dates and comments on the back of photos so that is how we knew). There were old pictures of my cousins Joanne, Ricky, Margaret and Louise, as well as Helen and Denise and of ...
Bugibba, Malta andrew.galea... of Valletta and the surrounding cities are very visible from the water, and I got a good picture of how it all fits together. I was sitting on the boat trying to imagine myself back in the Great Siege of 1565, watching severed heads fly across the the harbour from Vittoriosa to Valletta. Call me weird. The rich history of Malta captured me straight away, and I was wanting to learn as much as I could. The harbour cruise was not only a highlight of my trip to ...
Valletta, Malta stevea... as this was the last day of the holiday. The bad thing was that the timeshare people bugged us even more and one was aggressive and tried to force us to get one. Reported one to police because of it. I hope that person got banged up for it. Went to the pool afterwards and relaxed before the last evening meal which was delicious. We had brilliant fun on the 'Gambler's Night' and I took part in Cash Bingo as well as some Horse Racing but with a twist. You ...
