Gozo Day 11

We don't know if we're lucky or whether this is completely normal for the time of year, but it has been another perfect day. Lazy morning, followed by a wander into our local town of Xaghra for tea in the square, and a visit to a rather extraordinary stalagmite cave underneath someone's house. On the way, we took some shots of our villa from the road.

relaxing on the balcony outside our roo


Villa as seen from the road - that balcony is the alcove on the right of this picture

another view - the wall surrounding our pool
 
Café Reale, Xaghra. All cakes made on the premises by an Italian baker. We loved them, but
what would Mary and Paul say?

Xerri's Grottto, just down some steps under a house round the corner (as you do)
'This grotto was discovered by my grand great-father in 1926 and it takes thousands of years to grow an inch'
'That one through there, is a looks like streaky bacon'


'This one, is a looks like a lion and on its back is a looks like a turtle'
