We're both feeling a little low on energy today. We have been on the go for several days trying to take in as much of the Christmas celebrations as we can. We went out early this morning to finish our shopping for our New Years dinner of Prime Rib roast that we are cooking. We are preparing for a few days of inclement weather now until the New Year. After we got home I walked down to our little grocery store that will deliver our water and ordered enough to last for the next few weeks til we move to Marsascala.
I took advantage of an at home afternoon and did some journaling. Our morning skies are always an invitation to try to capture the delicate colours.
A favourite building from our two visits to the ancient village of Selmun.
The skyline looking across Marsamxett Bay from Sliema to Valletta.
Our constant view of St Paul's Bay, a protected harbour, that at this time of the year only has about 12 regular boats at anchor. I know each and every one now after 3 1/2 weeks. There are three Luzzus, the traditional Maltese boats of bright colours with the good luck eyes painted on both sides of their bows. Tonight they all have their noses pointed west into the wind as it blows directly from the North African country of Tunisia. There were signs of the sand and dust in the air this afternoon before dark and the rains came.
Tonight we sit comfy and warm listening to the wind blow and the rain beat on our windows.
