There is a lot of history on the Island going back to pre-neolithic times.

We stayed well away from the cruise ship it doesn’t appeal to me in the slightest. Whilst we sat looking down on it the ship was honking its horn to call people back as it was soon to set sail. I wouldn’t mind a river cruise or a smalll yacht cruise though.

For the second half of the holiday I have some of my own photos that I took on my mobile phone which luckily I had just upgraded (unexpectedly) before we travelled.

Sort about that. Nope I was not that confused, those ??? we’re originally emojis. Guess you can use your imagination as to what they were lol

I don’t know much about Malta, except that it’s an island off the coast of Italy with also Grecian influence – and that it has an inlet beach with turquoise water, like the Caribbean in an otherwise Mediterranean-blue sea, so excited to see and hear more!????

So is that a Knights Templar memorial? So interesting, heroes to some, villains to others. Perhaps the truth lies in the middle. Or they meant to be heroes but became villains with all that wealth and power. Perhaps your trip can tell us more?

Now was that your private yacht I saw in the earlier pic, darling, scuttling around like an Onassis? ????

And of course you boarded that giant commercial cruise, too ????

Methinks Mr. C is a boat fan, yes? ????

Me too, just not giant commercial, Norwalk-virus-circulating party cruises, just not my thing, but others love it, so I’ll hush ???? The engineering is cool though.

And I’d do a river cruise perhaps. Maybe even a Cunard transatlantic because you can bring dogs ????

Still working on a loaner laptop that won’t let me comment, so posting from my phone – so forgive all my commentary in one and if this posts twice!

Love you … ????
