Summary
Malta was not a destination I had strong feelings about going in. By the time we left, I was already thinking about going back. In this episode I am covering: Getting from the Disney Dream into Valletta — the 15-minute walk, the one-euro glass lift, and why getting off the ship early matters Why English is more widely spoken in Malta than the native Maltese language Filipino food in a Maltese food court — more logical than it sounds given how diverse the country is A women-owned co-op housing 15 to 20 small local businesses — clothing, skincare, accessories, and a woman who knew Philadelphia surprisingly well Hollywood: a two-story store where everything is made in Malta by local artisans, a former shop cat who has since been adopted (I was very sad), and the hot sauce worth buying Café Society: drinks on steps overlooking the harbor, two rounds, and a bird that deposited directly onto my leg and nearly into my drink Dinner at an authentic Maltese restaurant — pizza, pasta, a peach spritz, leftovers brought back to the ship Getting back to the cabin to find no shower curtain, waiting for one to be delivered, and finally showering Next episode: Dubrovnik, Croatia — an oyster farm on the water, the Walls of Ston (second largest fortification system in the world after the Great Wall of China), two wineries, and a home-cooked wild boar ragù with homemade gnocchi at a family winery on the Pelješac Peninsula.
