Malta, The final day at school

St. Catherine High SchoolCertificate of Merit after successful finishing of the language course at St. Catherine High School

Today is the last day at the language school. We were given the certificates and said goodbye to each other. However, I have two more days to spend a lovely time in exceptional Malta. The Maltese Islands cover the area of just 316 km², but there so much to see here. Actually, even in two days you will be able to get a feeling of the island's character. I highly recommend to visit the top attractions on Malta such as Valletta, Gozo and Mdina. It is very useful to take Hop On Hop Off Malta Sightseeing Tour.
The island of Gozo I am going to see tomorrow, but today it is time for Valletta.

So, I set off for Valletta to enjoy walking around the city once more and to obtain some presents for my friends. Such a nice day in such a beautiful city, which was deservedly declared a UNESCO World Heritage site!
The best souvenirs from Malta could be door handles, filigree, lace and glass products. As for foodstuff, you can buy sheep's cheese, sun dried tomatos, olive paste or honey.

While I am driving home from Valletta on the bus I pass through several towns with no borders. Here is a quick description of the areas.
Sliema is a kind of poshy place with expensive hotels and restaurants. Saint Julian's is the residence for many language schools. Peachvile is the center of the night life with numerous clubs and bars. Pembroke is a quite place, kind of a bedroom community, where some language schools are located. And I am happy to live in Pembroke.
