Well it has been a little while since I last wrote my blog. Last you guys heard I was in Egypt and about to make my way across the Southern Mediterranean Sea to Malta.
I am glad to say that I made it safely and have been enjoying it here in Malta for the last 2 weeks.
In the 2 weeks here I have had a total of 3 days off work. I have been to Malta’s capital “Valletta” and it as got to be one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen. Valletta is a fort on a peninsula, the whole city is this peninsula, its coastline is high walls with built in cannon holes and little secret passage ways all through it- the cannons actually have the English Crown Emblem on them. Its clear to see that Malta was under British rule from the world war until around 1975, it has got the same post boxes, phone boxes and the lamps outside the police station as in England, plus they drive on the left hand side of the road. Other than this I’ve not really seen that much of Malta, been working too hard and long hours trying to get the boat “blinging”. The one bit of advice I do have for anybody planning on going to Malta is, avoid the taxis, they are way too expensive and the public transport is great and cheap.
