After, we walked about 10 minutes to see St. Paul's Catacombs. This was even more fascinating! Reading about how the Romans buried their dead was amazing! We saw artifacts they found when they discovered the catacombs-- even bones and almost complete skeletons of people! They were buried with their jewelry and pottery and other things that are still intact! Quite amazing! We went down into several of these catacombs and the stone "coffins" carved out of the rock were everywhere in a maze-- you'd get lost if they weren't lit up! (The lights actually did go off for a bit while we were down there and it was really scary-- and creepy!) We enjoyed exploring here today! We walked back to Mdina and walked around for a bit more, got ice cream (Magnum bars, of course!) and then ubered back to our hotel.
We saw a cute Bug with "Megs" for it's license plate on our way back from Mdina! We grabbed McKenzie at the hotel and went out to a nice dinner at a restaurant that was recommended by our driver... and it was only a 5 minute walk from our hotel. (Hugo's) It was really good food. I got the burger, which was one of the juiciest burgers I've ever had and the girls got pizza-- Italian style and Bill got meat of some kind... can't remember. We walked on the beach and poked around the shops and mall after dinner and Katelyn found a tshirt of Malta. We walked back to the hotel...
