Malta, February 2010 - Hop-on/Hop-off
Started with breakfast again in the club lounge. The weather was the same as yesterday. Went on line to go info on the hop-on/hop-off buses. I left the hotel a little after 9AM. I walked all the way to the Sliema docks were the buses start. I choose the Red (South) tour. My plan was to get off at the Fort Rinella stop but the bus did not go there, that was strange. Therefore, I changed my plans and got off at the Blue Grotto. I had lunch at one of the restaurants in the area. Had a delicious chicken dish with fries and a salad. Also had a few glass of local red wine. I walked up the observation area and shot a boatload of pictures. Went back down to the drop off point and had a beer whilst I wait on the bus. Got back to Sliema around 3PM, I walked up to an electronics store and purchases a pair of Sony mini PC speakers. They sound good for such small speakers and very easy to carry around. On my long walk back to the hotel, I ran into a couple AECOM peeps. They said that a group will be at The Dublin (an Irish pub) to watch the rugby match. I got back to the hotel, downloaded the photos and did some computer stuff. Headed up to the lounge for snacks and tea. Back to the room and called Tracy via Skype, and discovered I could conference in Mom and Dad at the same time, Cool. I headed over to the pub around 8ish. When I showed up six AECOMers were already there. They force me to pound my first beer. We all had a great time, I think I got home around midnight. Not sure, I was a bit tipsy and very tired. I skipped my nightly email to Tracy and crashed.
