Good morning from Malta where we expect a high of 38°C.
Thank you for all your kind comments . It was a very long day yesterday but I enjoyed every minute.
We drove (or should I say DD1 drove) to Savoca where the film ‘The Godfather’ was made. Had a snack in the bar which featured in the film, they certainly make a killing as it was very busy and very expensive but we enjoyed it.
We then went to Taormina - I have lost count of the times I’ve been there over many years - but so many happy memories made there with DH it was good to be back despite it being extremely full of tourists.
We had a long drive back down to Pozzallo from where the catamaran leaves, but we stopped in a pretty fishing village called Marzamemi and had a plate of delicious pasta before a rather hair-raising drive to the port. Dark, unlit roads made me very thankful I wasn’t driving!
Incidentally, the crossing both ways was as calm as a mill pond. The catamaran is huge, very comfortable, and is no different from going on a bus, in fact probably smoother.
I ache all over this morning as we did a lot of walking. Bertie thoroughly enjoyed his day, trotting along like a spring chicken when he’s actually a little old man in dog years!
He’s as good as gold in the car and on the crossing he just curled up in his carrier and snoozed all the way, I can see why he’s no trouble on all the flights he does, bless him.
Enough of my waffling. I hope you all have a good day.☀️
