Still a little damp and the maintenance jobs continue!
The damp sky allowing the sun to peek through from time to time
The green top is back out for the morning coffee visit.
Business as usual on the streets of Birgu!
Off in the car (now sporting it’s licence label) to the Cat charity shop to stock up on English books before we venture further to another non English country!
Sleeping peacefully in his basket in the middle of the shop just to prove our donations are hitting the spot!
A quick loo stop at St Thomas bay and the surf is rolling in again! Finally I understand why I have seen surfing advertised here!
From the Deep South we headed north to meet Marcella (cousin) who was taking us looking for car parts (for our old merc back home)
Arrived a bit early at the designated meeting point – San Anton Gardens and thought we would go and see if the rain, over the last few weeks, had livened them up. (Last visit rather dusty and all plants brown)
And it sure has – abundant marigolds.
Sue looking like a hobbit in the tree roots! There was a lot more tree above this picture.
Russ framed by Silk Floss Trees from South America.
And the wildlife a lot more perky in the cooler weather
Peacocks
A turtle pond full of turtles of varying sizes – these guys owning the centre waterfall monument.
The black Swan pool, although rather camera shy!
Met up with Marcella and set off on the car part hunt! A modem of success, we purchased a replacement button for the handbrake ( at the huge cost of €1.70).
From here a quick pastizzi stop for a lunch snack and to cousin Charlottes, who very kindly repaired my nails (we do this when on holiday!)
Very spoiled! Russ took himself off for a walk while all this girl stuff was going on.
A successful day all round and on a positive note it’s beer and hamburgers for Friday dinner!
