Our plane arriving
at Heathrow on its inbound flight from Valletta. |

Anticipation... |
|
| |
After a good flght,
we were met at the airport and driven to the cruise ship
terminal in the Grand Harbour Valletta, where the beautiful
Island Sky was awaiting our arrival!

Taken from the ship
in the port of Valletta, looking out towards Birgu (left),
also known as Città Vittoriosa and Senglea (right),
also known as Città Invicta, both of which are old
fortified cities on the south side of the Grand Harbour. |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
The harbour is a busy
one, with seemingly large maintenance facilities, assuming
this huge platform is anything to go by. |
|
|
| |
We were all invited
to go onto the aft decks after dinner for a glass of bubbly
and to admire the views as we departed the Grand Harbour,
Valletta. It was a beautiful, balmy night and it turned
out to be a magical experience. |
