Captions and a few more photos to be added later.

On the last day of our trip to Malta John, Nick and I decided to hire a car so that we could explore more of Gozo. With Jon's son Alex we went in search of any form of transport that we could find !



£23 for the day from Victoria Car & Van Rental Qwara.

Loaded on the car deck of the Gozo Lines MV Valletta.



Coming down to the harbour is the route 25 from Vivctoria.



Modern roads now leave the harbour at Mgarr. At the top is an ideal spot to photograph all the tour buses.



























Lunch at QBajjar and a fine fried rabbit !



Marsalforn and a route 21 service bus.



The end of the road near Il Pergla with a footpath to Calypso's Cave.

Leaving the Gozitan coaches at Mgarr the two lounges soon overflow.



The hardy ones observe MVValletta heading for Mgarr.



Back on the main island Malta we decided the road to Manikata and then along the Wardija Ridge, finally arriving at Bur Marrad.
