Bye Malta! We got an early cab (they always arrive 15 minutes before the specified time, probably for good reason) and had a pretty uneventful trip to Bali via Bangkok.

So much of our travels happens near wherever we're staying. We did have a car the first weekend in Malta and we made the most of it, but walking is our normal mode.

We took a weekend day-trip to Gozo. After the freezing cold ferry ride (but at least it wasn't nauseating, and it was sunny!) we enjoyed Malta's other island.

A rainy, cold tour of Mdina. All the photos show it being baked by the sun! We are undaunted and set off on the bus to visit the old capital of Malta.

I am Groot (chicken luncheon meat). But also Sliema Cat Sanctuary!

We got up early and down to the ferry terminal at the end of our street, and now we realise taking a boat over is the best way to go; avoid the crowds and rush and head across in style.

As is normal for us we went into Valletta without much of a plan except to follow the crowd and then take our own twists and turns to see what we can see.
