2 September 2015 - Sliema and Valetta, Malta

This morning we were watching the clock because we had planned to go on the ferry to Malta. 

On the ferry

When we got there it was already morning tea so I had a ham and cheese toasty at a cafe. We did some shopping at Sliema. Sliema is a big shopping area and has a marina with lots of boats. 

Where's Isaac?

I had a margarita pizza for lunch at a nice restaurant. 

Yum!

We went to Valetta. That is the capital city of Malta. It's very big and quite old. Valetta is a shipping port.

We finished our visit to Valetta with afternoon tea at Cafe Regina, and old cafe from 1837.

At the festa in the night time, Mum bought us some takeaway food and we followed the band and procession with the statue of the holy Mary. When we got tot the end, the statue was lifted up and everyone danced, sang festa songs, and lit firecrackers. I was on my dad's shoulders and it was heaps of fun. I was really tired by the end.
