• Day 6 • Gozo, one of those days

    March 27, 2024 in Malta ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    ‘It was one of those March days …’ though the problem was not so much the shade but the wind.

    After yesterday’s wild winds in Valletta, we were relieved to be able to take a morning fast ferry from Malta to Gozo - given what came later, I’m pretty sure the afternoon ferries would have been cancelled.

    We settled in to our lovely Bed and Breakfast in Victoria, visited the Tourism Office to get a Gozo map and bus timetable, and by early afternoon we were at the prehistoric Ggantija Temples.

    Just as well we didn’t waste any time … by mid afternoon, the wind had whipped up again, but this time accompanied by a drop in temperature of about 5 or 6 degrees. March weather … Rather than include my few and not very good photos, here is a link to Heritage Malta’s description and much better images.

    Arriving back in Victoria, the wind was icy. We took a few hours refuge in our B&B, then braved the cold for an early evening stroll before dinner. Here are some photos including some of the Citadelle. We’ll visit again tomorrow, for sure. 😎
