Always pack your bikini!

This morning my friend Jill arrived from New Zealand to spend my last four weeks abroad with me! At 10am I am sitting at the airport enjoying a Costa coffee and she messages me I here by costa coffee and there we are looking at each other!!! Home to tge penthouse to unload and shower (for Jill) then Roland’s last few hours (before another trip to the Airport) were spent lunching at the Royal Malta Golf club (Roland’s workplace)

The greenest place in Malta! Joining the sports club is out of the question for us middle income earners but a great place to be invited to!

Jill and I sporting (note sport) our little floral tops and denim shorts for our lunch on the terrace of the Golf club restaurant! Maybe we should have frocked it! Hill by now 36 hours with no sleep!!!

We then dropped Rols to the airport (that’s now three trips without getting lost) – after 6 weeks I’m finally getting it! Home for Jill to settle in and then “Bikini shopping”. 36 degrees and no bathing costume! An easy order to fill, on an Island where swimming is a daily activity! And off to Senglea point for a dip.

Mermaid Jill – backdrop Valletta and cruise ship in for the day! A Day – would never recommend a visit to Malta for a day – there is just too much!

Drip dry, as you do, and a stop at Alice Springs for a cool beer and wine, while Jill soaked up the sights of the Three Cities (old) and we watched a very huge super yacht manoeuvre it’s way into berth on the opposite side of the marina!

Home around 6 and a fresh water shower on the deck, rinsing bodies and bathing suits (and cleaning the deck) Multi tasking all the way! Sue had beer and Jill had Tea – Jill determined to wait until the sun set before crashing! (After 4& hours of no sleep)

Tomorrow’s plan is loosely arranged – let the fun begin!
