I'm the kind of woman whose feet hit the floor each morning, and the Devil says........... " Oh, Blast She's Up !! "
Mph was the typical long and narrow street Strait Street? commonly known as the "Gut" to all matelots, never seen it in daylight before. but great photos
Once the original Grumpy Owld Man but alas no more
Its either Merchant Street or Republic Street.Strait Street is much narrower and is mainly paved and pedestrian only(i think).
Was trying to I.D it from the church/building with the spire in the distance but failed so i've posted it on a Malta photo forum asking for I.D so hopefully i'll have the answer soon.
The Festa Street shots are the same,either Merchant or Republic Street.

Nice set MPH. (especially No.1) My father used to work there so me and my brother & sister were shipped out for 4 to 5 weeks during the summer holidays when I was about between 15 to 18 (4 years running). Good to see the old place again. Brings back lots of memories.
All the world's a stage and we are merely players . . . . .

I can think of a lot of worse places to be shipped out to.I enjoyed the place so much i'll be going back.
Great photos of a beautiful place.
Thanks for sharing and glad you had a nice holiday.
