Malta Trip - Day 7

Our last day in Malta, we took the bus to Mosta,where we visited the Mosta Dome. It was built in 1860 over a church that was built in 1614. The church then was taken down.
In 1942, a bomb was dropped onto the dome, falling to the floor. Fortunately, it was a dud, but the parishoners attributed it to a miracle from Mary.


This depicts Paul's shipwreck

The marble was phenomenal on the altars and the floors!




During lunch, we had a debriefing time, and visited Centru L'Isperanza. This is a new outreach to reach communities through needs they may have.

For our "celebration dinner", we went to a restaurant located on the Msida Marina.

Close by was this "Black Pearl", formerly owned by Errol Flynn,had been sunk, brought up and refurbished, and used in the movie Popeye.


It was just before sunset, so we were able to get a few more pictures in. On the left is Seliema (means Peace) and the prison, on the right Valletta. The spire in Valletta is St. Paul's Anglican Church

The clear water revealed some beautiful red corral


During our walks around the city, I was struck by the beautiful doors: Not only the door itself, but the frame around it. There is a poster of the doors of Malta,but I could not find it. So let me conclude the Malta Trip blog by showing you some of the unique doors we saw.







And finally, this bar door....loved the sign!
