Malta

After leaving Mahdia, we spent three idyllic days at anchor in Lampedusa under the Q flag, so we never even went to shore. Instead we enjoyed the sun, scenery and swimming.

We left with a perfect sailing forecast for the 100 mile trip to Malta, but we set off motoring and in the end motored all the way under calm conditions.  That, at least, is the next best alternative.

We are now moored in Sliema creek and are feverishly anticipating a hike through the historic and fabulous Valletta.  We plan on spending a few weeks exploring Malta .
