The weekend in Malta

On Saturday Vince and I took very few photos for a change! We went near to Mdina to the Aviation museum and the nearby craft village

IMG_0892 At the aviation museum we read all about the horrors of war and how it affected the resilient people of Malta. They were virtually starved of food and had most  of their homes bombed so they had to live in caves underground.

At the craft market we viewed the beautiful Maltese glass, jewellery, Maltese food and embroidery. We had a cultural morning!

Sunday morning we visited Marsoxlokk fish market. It is a huge market which stretches all along the sea front, stall after stall for a mile and a half.

There were crowds of people and so we followed the road round to the next bay at Marsascala where there is a marina and a sandy rocky beach. it was delightful and we spent a couple of hours there. The weather is still warm at 21 degrees and sunny/cloudy.

Tomorrow is our last full day. (The plane departs 12.55pm Tuesday)
