Valletta..

The bus ride to Valletta was of course an experience again but I have already talked about that fun realness. When we got to Valletta we couldn’t believe the beauty of this amazing city, the old buildings made with maltese limestone with a touch of modern where unbelievable to look at. Everywhere you look there is something amazing architecturally about the city , we continued to walk around and take in the sites. We then arrived at the most amazing gardens that overlooked the harbours of Valletta and the three cities, this is where you can see that Malta was built to be a fort during the war, the history involved in this country is so intriguing and definitely a place to visit if you are a history buff.

We looked in a few shops in Valletta but there are not many modern shops here like most cities, it is mostly small local shops and alot of hand made crafts which are perfect for gifts and souvenirs. I felt very relaxed there in Valletta as there are not any people trying to push you to buy there products, this gives a more relaxed environment that is perfect on holiday.

For dinner we went to a local ‘British’ pub , this served traditional British dishes along with a few Maltese dishes. I ordered the fish and chips that came out fairly fast and looked huge, the food was delicious and very reasonable for the money.

As the day went on we were exhausted so our next plan was the bus home. Falling asleep and trying to stay awake so I didn’t miss my stop was my next task, the buses in the evenings are very full and hot! Finally back at the hotel and definitely failing to be the party animal I should be at 25 we decided to call it a night!!

Our next day adventure awaited us..
