OK - so my wonderful husband had his heart set on ending our first full day in Malta by taking the ferry 20 minutes accross the Mediterranean to the small island of Gozo. Gozo is know for pretty much 3 things. 1. Wonderful diving. 2. Neolithic Tempels and 3. The Azure window - a breath taking view of some rock formations in the middle of the sea. We hopped the ferry over - about a 20 minute ride - to drive for 30 minutes to the lookout area so we could see this wonder of nature. Little know fact that tourists don't get the memo on - if it rains a bunch in Gozo, the roads turn to mud. Muddy mud....DEEP MUDDY MUD and they close the roads to attractions of nature. Josh is not one to be deterred when he sets his heart on something. We parked the car and hoofed it through a muddy field to see if we could get pictures. I got some lovely shots of flowers, of Josh a good 20 yards away from me and of Josh watering natures glory. (though I didn't post that one!) As a side bar - our guide, Joan, told us we were lucky we didn't get shot wandering through someones fields. We got into the car and Josh decided to do a little more exploring, found another road and wandered to an amazing overlook with an excellent shot of The Azure Window and a breath taking sunset.
