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.
