I grew up in Europe, where the history comes from.

Blue Grotto
We then went down to the Blue Grotto, not a place that really appealed to me to stop and visit, but I was able to get a few nice images from the bus as we passed by.
Hagar Qim and Mnajdra
These ancient temples predate the pyramids of Egypt. Stonehenge or any other megalith.
Marsaxlokk
From Tarxien, I jumped back (after a fair wait) onto the bus and went through the three cities and down to the fishing village of Marsaxlokk for lunch and to see the colourful fishing boats.
Tarxien Temples
Unfortunately, the magnificent Hypergien was fulled booked until mid-November, but I was able to see the Tarxien Temples. An excavated temple surrounded by houses and one graveyard.
St. Julian’s
The feel of the place is Greek, but not. Sandstone and beige buildings dominate. The sea is a dark rich blue and the clouds fade to haze on the horizon.
