Last morning in Malta. We picked up some pastizzis and sat on a bench for breakfast. They are the traditional pastry of Malta, cost about 30 cents each and are amazing. Pea, cheese and chicken are the common flavors. None of them suck. Afterwards, we walked along Grand Harbor to check out the boats one last time. We walked to the end of Vittoriosa and around Fort St. Angelo, which is what our apartment looked out on. It's crazy, imaging everything that went on there over the years. Afterwards, we had to go back and finish packing. So sad. We had a taxi pick us up and take us to the airport where we caught our flight to London. The flight was great, but customs was a nightmare. There were two large flights ahead of us (from China and India) and it took over 2.5 hours to get through. It kind of ruined our plans for sure. All the restaurants were closed, as it was 11 pm by the time we got to our apartment. We ended up picking up cheese and crackers from a little all-night corner stand and calling it a night. I don't think we ate real food the entire day today. Thankfully we have a couple days ahead of us yet.
