Why Malta – not a really good reason – except we want to visit.
We had a great stay. Our hotel is in Cospicua neighborhood. Along water. Historic. Amazing old architecture & historic buildings. Lots of steps.
We did not realize how important Malta was to allied war effort & how much they suffered with constant bombing. A truly resilient citizenry.
In addition to touring Valletta- main city, we visited Marsaloxx, Mdina, & Gozo. Loved each place.




Next Gozo



We took a fast ferry to Gozo Island about 30 minutes from Valletta. Snd, we found a quaint English pub to have a beer while watching USA men’s hockey.
Mdina- historic village -easy bus ride from Valletta. More great historic architecture and charming shops & cafes.


In all we loved Malta. People very friendly. Safe. Lots to enjoy.
