Malta Trip - Day 4

Monday morning we boarded the bus to go to Mqabba for our prayerwalking. After pairing up and dividing the town up, we started our praying The streets are narrow, the doors close, so it was a slow walk. Again the Lord led us to homes...we met Mary, then Joseph, a shop keeper! We joked that we needed a Paul or John to meet... but we met Luke! They were open to us praying for them.
On the way back to Valletta, we stopped to see the Blue Grotto. I have never seen such beautiful and clear water!! The color was absolutely gorgeous!! The boats were being repaired (off season) so we were not able to take the boat tour.





Then we stopped at Hagar Qim Temple is thought to date from the "Ggantija phase," which is about 3600 to 3200 BC. Unlike most other Maltese temples, it is a single temple rather than a complex of two or three.



Next to the Qim is the Mnajdra Temple. The northern temple at Mnajdra was built c.3600-3200 BC, the middle temple was constructed 3150-2500 BC, and the southern temple dates from around 2000 BC.




Both have been covered with a white tent within the past couple of years to preserve them. It is amazing when one realizes how old these really are. Even the buildings that date to the 1500 and 1600's seem new compared to these!!
