8 April 2025 Sliema: Off to Valetta For Sushi

 


We are heading to Italy in just a few days so we went back to Valetta one last time.  It is a beautiful city and has many old buildings.  We planned on lunching and wandering but when we got to our 4.9 rated choice, it only had seven chairs, five of which were already filled with patrons.  Luck for us a very good sushi place was right next door.  They were having cherry blossom themed drinks and menu items in celebration of the cherry blossom season.  A few rolls, some tempura and a tasty cherry blossom brulee later and we are back to megandering the streets.  We decided to take the ferry back to Sliema but  it was not funning due to the waves.  We did not see any waves but they did not ask us.  So it was an Uber home to get some packing done.  Our month in Malta certainly went by very fast.


Valetta is the capitol of Malta so there are some ceremonial statues


When the sun is out, so are the people


Yellow necked eagle


4.9 out of 5 is a great rating but not if you cant get a seat


A golden root greets us at the sushi place


Decorated nicely


Big fish!


A volcano roll that actually looks like a volcano


A feast for the eyes and the mouths


Not sure of the function of this business


She wore leather!


I took some time in the morning to collect all the knobs and knockers


So many delightful additions to all the doors


Way back!


On our way to the ferry terminal


I like wine!

Off we go in an uber


Cheers to a great time in Malta among friends!
