Boudicca in Valetta - a busy little port. Quite tight for large ships to be manoeuvring....
The above reminds me of a disaster movie where a lifeboat or similar gets mashed by the ship's propellers.
Valetta, or for that matter anywhere in Malta, was new to us. We didn't opt for any of the interesting tours in favour of looking around Valetta on our own. The mooring was really close to this (above) viewpoint, just a matter of a few minutes walk after taking a lift down to the lower street level.
The two things that stood out about Valetta for us were the steep and narrow streets .....
and the similarities to many towns/cities in Britain .....
We did happen across some sort of civic/military celebrations, which we assumed were because Boudicca was moored in the cruise terminal (and maybe even the massive MSC Meraviglia beside us) but maybe that was wishful thinking?
And the only other thing of particular interest was the bunkering operation, i.e. refuelling Boudicca.
Majorca next.
