We change lodging today,  moving to St.Paul’s Bay in the north.   And today is the big market day in the little fishing town of Marsaxlott.  It’s well known for great seafood, so we made arrangements to store our bags at a luggage place and take the old fashioned bus to Marsaxlott!

There is a huge market on Sunday here but i really wanted to have a great fish lunch and see the colorful boats in the harbor, so i was happy to skim the shopping parts

Sea bass lunch was delicious

The shopping was typical fare, local products, foods. Clothing,  and daily necessities.

After lunch,  we took the old bus back to Valletta, enjoyed a delicious gelato,  picked up our bags,  and caught a ride to St Paul’s Bay and the Doubletree hotel there.  

From this point on,  we are staying in hotels,  and enjoying a bit more luxury.   We were upgraded at the Doubletree since we own some Hilton Grand vacation timeshares.   Our room has a king sized bed,  and a great bay view.

From this part of Malta, we plan to visit the ancient capital Mdina and Rabat, as well as spend a day on Gozo, the sister island of Malta.
