Malta Vacation

We spent 8 days in Malta in June.  It was beautiful and we loved it.  We had an apartment right on the water (the pic above is our view).  It was really hot there, but there were so many nice places to swim.  We went swimming every day except for one (and that was the day we had to pick up the rental car.)  We went to the island of Comino to see the Blue Lagoon, and also the island of Gozo. 

 Popeye Village, above.  Where the Robin Williams Popeye was filmed.  

 Above, a dry riverbed meeting the sea- perfect swimming spot.  Below, salt flats. They are all over some coastal areas.  We bought sea salt from a lady selling it on the side of the road.  

 Maltese food.  Below, rabbit, the traditional dish.
