Yesterday we went to the Maltese island, Gozo. We took a ferry boat to the island, which was really cool and fun. Then we walked around the main city of the island, Victoria. We went to the top of this lookout point where we could see the coastline of the island is all directions. It was really pretty.
The water here is the most beautiful I've seen of the Mediterranean yet. Aqua. <3.
I think one of the things I am going to miss the most about Europe here is seeing the Mediterranean all the time.
Today we went to Valleta, the capital city of Malta. We met up with one of the guys who was in our program in Valencia, Rob. So we went to a market, walked around a bit. Saw the parliament.
Then we went to Mdina which at one point was the capital, but then they switched it to Valleta. So now they call it the 'silent city'. But, it was far from silent, it was actually pretty happening. The city is completely fortressed in, which was SOOO sweet. (Reminded me of LOTR.)
So we chilled in Mdina, had some lunch. Then we made our way back to Sliema where we are staying with the Luther peeps.
Malta has these bright orange janky buses... they are so funny looking. They're kind of famous for them though I guess...
Tonight we made the flat dinner as a thank you for letting us stay here for free. We made sweet and sour chicken, with veggies, and rice and then fruit pizza for dessert. It was pretty good. : )
Tomorrow we leave Malta and are headed to Rome to meet up with Lizzi Emery and Erik Halvorson! I'm excited!!!
