Prinsendam sails into Grand Harbor, Malta
The captain of the M.S. Prinsendam warned us that we best be up early for our entry into the Grand Harbor (also called the Port of Valletta), Malta, if we wanted to see one of the most spectacular arrivals of the cruise. He was absolutely correct. The sun was low on the horizon, giving the ancient Maltese fortification and city walls a soft, warm glow.

Malta is, if anything, even more spectacular than even Santorini. So, while I try to keep destination articles down to six spread out of two weeks, looking at the number of really good shots available to me coaxed me into talking about Malta for twelve articles spread out of four weeks. I hope you don’t get bored, but there is just too much here to spend any less time on the subject.
