Leaving our hotel we look back to the harbour
The old fort in front of us on the hillside
Climbing the hill we cross a bridge built by the British
Peter bringing up the rear
One of many building used as shelters while trapping migrating birds
Pausing to take in the view
Of the towering cliffs
Wide expanses of wildflowers
These are French honeysuckle
Wild sorrel. Lots of different yellow wildflowers on the island
More coastal views
As we make our way along the cliff top
Then uphill
Soon picking up a broad track
With views back along the coast
And more towering cliffs
Shortly reaching the town of Sannat
Typical stone wall which we find on Gozo
Mallow
Statue of 3 generations of farm workers holding traditional ploughs at Ta Cenc
Note the precise fine
Continuing through Sannet
Oh no!
More coastal walking with the town of Nadur inland
As we look down on the straits between Gozo and Comino
Ashphodel
The ferry returning from Malta
And yet another flower - not indigenous
Heading down into a bay
A pause half way down
Chance for some to get their feet wet
And a small cafe for coffee
Before we continue back up
A last look down at the beach
The Mgarr ix - Xini coastal tower
Still on the coast
Past some unusual rock formations
Which Peter explores a bit closer
Comino and Malta now in view
A lizard
Terraces of stocks
A short climb
Prickly pears
And more coast views
As we continue along the cliffs
An old fortress
And a bit of modern art on a traffic island heading into Mgarr
Group photo
A reminder that Easter approaches
As we enter Bethlehem
A replica village?
With fishing boats
We walk on through
A map
Agricultural machinery?
And the church at the end of our walk in Ghajnsielem
Back to the hotel and a pre-dinner drink in St. Patrick's hotel next door
They have spotted something
Looking happy
