Alright, so we last updated in Malta. We had such an amazing week there. We stayed 7 nights (the longest we'd stayed anywhere!) and had such a fun time. Spent some great days on the beach, explored some really neat towns, did a bit of shopping, and met some really cool people at the hostel. The hostel was run by this young Canadian guy (who lived near Square One, how weird is that?) and one great night, he busted out his guitar and we ended up having a sing-along all night...so fun!
From Malta we took the ferry back to Sicily and ended up spening a day in Pozzallo, a little port town in the very south. We couldnīt have loved it there more! The people were incredibly friendly, they had a great beach (but it couldnīt have been windier!) and since we were leaving Italy for good the next day, we were able to find all our fav Italien treats. Dev managed to eat 5 scoops of gelato!) It was great.
Our trip from Sicily to Spain can be described in one word: tiring. We took the bus from Pozzallo to Palermo (which was one of the most beautiful bus rides of my life, right through the middle of Sicily) then flew to London Stansted. We spent the night there (and got no sleep) then flew to Valencia the next morning. From there we caught a bus to Alicante to meet my friend Roz (who is doing her year abroad there). So, with 30 hours of travelling behind us (and still no sleep) we visited with Roz, then got ready and met her friends for a night out...Letīs just say when we got home at 2am, we were pretty pumped to get to bed...
Yesterday we spent the day checking out the shops in Alicante and spending 2 quality hours at an all-you-can-eat buffet (Dev and I hadnīt eaten properly in days...it was heaven) The weather here so far has been nice and hot...so good.
So there you have it, hope everyone is well...we miss you!
talk to you soon.
