Weekend family time

Up early on a Sunday morning and off to the car boot market!

The sun was rising and the morning heating up! George demolished his first meal of the day and on the (quiet) roads by 7am!

A lot of dusty merchandise – overpriced for foreigners….but a couple of books to read the only purchase! Both needing a coffee hit we ended up on the Birgu waterfront (in the shade of the church….as the marina came alive!

A great day for boating – most days are! Down in the area we then cruised across to the other side where I have another little gardening job in Kevin’s absence! Their friend is in England and we are keeping her plants alive!

We had a lunch date with the cousins at a little after 12 so headed home for George to have his 2nd breakfast, bring in washing and I did a couple of hours work.

Heading north around midday for lunch at Attard with Cousins Sam and Anna and Rebecca! A delicious meal of Spaghetti bolognese and it rained! The first rain I have seen in two weeks! But not for long and by 3pm when we all headed further north to visit Rebecca’s new home it was moisture free! Her penthouse in Mellieha is high on a hill with panoramic views over farmland and out to sea!

A cool beer while Rebecca unpacked some treasures….the sun shining once again

The gals and….

The boys!

Around 6.30pm George and GPSed it back to Paola as George had managed to sink about 5 large Cisks (beers) over the afternoon and was feeling the jet lag creeping in!

He is devouring his forth meal of the day and I can now have a quiet beer now my driving duties are done for the day! Although nothing is quiet, as fireworks bang away in our neighbourhood! They were going when we left and cranking up again for the evening!
