Malta, April 2009 - Valletta

Had breakfast in the hotel. Walked over to the ferry heading to Valletta. I went straight to the Malta Experience. Not bad, afterward I headed to the Lower Barrakka Gardens. I watched the noon Siege bell ring and watched the Saluting Battery. I walked into town had lunch at a pizza cafĂ©. Then wandered over to St. John’s Cathedral. I went in and took many pictures, very cool inside. Afterwards I started my search for the Lascaris War Room. I followed the directions in the Lonely Plant book and found the plaque. It was hidden just as the book said. I went through narrow corridors and ended up at a locked gate. Later I found out that it was closed indefinitely for renovations. I walked over to the Hastings Gardens, great views. I had dinner at Little Things (German restaurant). Talked with the owners about beer and food. They cooked a great meal for me. Back to the hotel for the night.
