malta is a tiny speck of an island south of sicily, and it's a good thing there were discounted flights there last weekend, otherwise i might have missed it on my quest to visit all the countries is europe!
it's nice and hot there, an okay beach destination but it also made me realize how well-preserved bermuda is. (the one car per family quota really keeps that island beautiful.) the most exciting thing about malta is their ancient temple ruins, including the oldest free-standing ruins in the world! older than stonehenge or the pyramids -- i love that stuff. also, the neighbouring island of gozo is supposed to be the island of calypso from the odyssey. gobble gobble gobble (that's me eating this stuff up).
