Our Trip To Malta

I have to start off by saying Malta was not at all what I expected. We stayed at the Intercontinental Malta located in St. Julian's on the east coast. It was in a really good location. You could walk to the beach just down the hill or across the street to the mall, and there was a lot of night life right around the corner. There was also a movie theater right next door. Everything was soooooo expensive! The exchange rate was 1 Maltese Lira for every $3.11. WOW! Needless to say, I'm glad we went but we won't be going back. The Maltese have beautiful glasswork, in fact, they are known for it. We bought a beautiful glass vase there. We took a bus across the island to the ferry which took us to the Blue Lagoon on the island of Camino which was beautiful. The water was completely clear, birght blue and surrounded by rocky terrain. It was completely sheltered from the sea which was very rough that day. We had a really good time there swimming and just spending quiet time. There is nothing else around it though, you can only swim or sun bathe. We stayed about two hours and then went back to the main island. Our next big trip will be to Egypt. Stay tuned!!!
