Beautiful, c.i. Your trips are always an adventure for those of us who live them vicariously. Great photos!

I'm in total agreement with everyone here, most especially Osso and Piffka. That door is a vision and I lusted after the ability to enter. The fishing village - I could live there forever. And the painted boats reminded me of exactly the way they paint them on the south side of Portugal. Great views! What I wouldn't do to wander around an ancient walled city.

The London Eye. Didn't go on a ride on this trip, but did so two years ago.

<Tower Bridhe was closed by Transport for London during the time of the meeting ..... no, not because of us, but so a survey could be carried out>

Tak, you left Dys and I in your dust. You are an even faster walker than I am and you are like a pointer in that you find the right direction and GO!

We would love to travel with you again as you never expected us to keep up with you; letting us set our own pace of leisurely strolling.

I'm waiting for the train ride....hee, hee, hee.

Some more pictures of Malta. This one is a little special. It's at the Palazzio Paradiso. Can you guess what the special thing is?

A narrow street of Valletta. BTW, I'll be back in Valletta when I take the cruise from Barcelona to Athens in November.

Ah, the Scotch connection............................Mmmmm

That is a great looking ship. It suggests speed just sitting there. Errr, floating there?

Pipped twice, but not thrice...... if I hurry.

Could your "special picture" have anything to do with John the Baptist's visit to Malta??

Also, love those street scenes.... You should be in some of them.

A museum we visited in Valletta. I'll get the name a little later. I think it was the St John's museum, but I wouldn't put .02c on it.
This is the Grand Master's Palace.

Yeah, a really good scotch whisky is just that - really good.
