Update May 04, 2015
Things have been quiet here for the last couple of weeks, mainly because I was busy getting the Collections database working the way I wanted it to, and more recently I enjoyed a short trip to Malta to celebrate my 50th birthday. The photos I took have been uploaded to the following page Malta April 2015.
Among the many photos taken from a couple of open top bus tours, the highlights are:
- San Anton Palace Gardens where we briefly saw the President
- Malta International Fireworks Festival – my photos don’t do it justice
- The Blue Grotto – again my photos don’t really do it justice.
We stayed at the Radisson Blu Hotel, St Julian’s
The next ink reviews that I had planned were to be for the Diamine 150th Anniversary inks. However, I have recently received a kind donation of a bottle Noodler’s Park Red from Pen Chalet, so I am going to prioritise this for the next review, which I should complete within the next week.
