Bari

Went to Valletta harbour for lunch at the Royal Malta Yacht Club restaurant I had steak, then over to Blue Grotto before going back to airport to catch flight FR9875 to Bari.

I was staying in II Trespolo Degli Angeli, via Piazzetta 62 Marinai, 15. I arrived at about 10:30…and made my way to the old town. My internet wasnt working and I’d lost directions. It was a nightmare. I phoned the guy and he could speak very little English and was trying to get me to a particular square and statue. Eventually sorted, and to a very small room but perfect for what I needed. Superb modern shower with radio built in. TV, sink toilet. Breakfast out into street and round cornere into main building. Tight space but great choice of food and cool coffee machine.

Mgarr

Jogging in the morning then drive over to Mgarr to see rental property – great size and just up from Harbour, but not sure about being in Mgarr. Super meal on hill at Restaurant Xerri Il Bukkett, Mgarr Heights – rabbit in garlic…yummy and a great view!

Monopoly

Met up with rep from Frank Salt and looked at two rental properties in Marsalforn, both facing the bay. Neither had enough appeal as both had balconies but not in direct position for sun.

Gozo

Caught ferry to Gozo and stayed in Carini Farmhouses Santu Pietru Street Gharb for three nights. The farmhouse was beautiful four large bedrooms each with shower and toilet facilities. Very clean – three floors, pool, great view over Gharb. Great value for money. Went to the Azure Window and a lovely sunset to end the day.

Blue Elephant visit

Spent an enjoyable afternoon in the company of the very creative Stephen Rodgers at his recently opened Blue Elephant studio. Here he is making another miniature pig for sale in the gallery’s retail space.
