Malta


 

 Hello Again

Malta and its islands are said to occupy a position in the centre of the Mediterranean.  So here we are moored in the beautiful harbour of Marsamxetto looking up at the old city of Valletta with its huge fortified walls, Grand Palaces and Churches.  It is so pretty at night as spot lights flood the ancient walls, the domes, spires and bell towers of the churches.  On the other side of the rocky Valletta peninsula lies Grand Harbour with an equally beautiful view of Valletta and more forts churches etc. around its coastline.
