    ‘What a grand harbour’ Steve 😂. I didn’t realise that Floriana had so much to it. We will make sure we make time to walk around it. Last year we just skirted past the Granaries when Lewis Capaldi was singing in the evening. It was nice hearing the musicians rehearsing as we passed by and all the young people coming into Valletta afterwards when it had finished. There was quite a fun atmosphere. It would be great if you could do the historical trail if you have the time Steve. We would appreciate any pointers. Thanks for the video. It’s a good one 💕

    Nice video, great views, we have walked most of them gardens, certain times of the year when planted with flowers they are very picturesque, also a great place to be when a liner is in dock because you are very close to it. We are sure the heritage trail would be good, Floriana is a really nice place.

    “What a beautiful Grand Harbour!” 😍 You know me Steve, I always stay to the last second! I thoroughly enjoyed this video Steve. Thank you 🥰👏🏼 I love Floriana and I will definitely be doing this walk when we are next over. Regarding the owner of the big yacht Steve, 🛥️ I always think to myself that there’s plenty worse off who would probably love to be in our position. So long as you have your health and facilities, and good family/friends that’s all that matters. Anything else is a bonus ❤ Would certainly love to see the Floriana heritage trail Steve 👍🏼 Take care

    Very enjoyable video. Places away from tourist areas, I love to see these. My father was in the air force and we lived in Malta for 3 years I actually went to a convent school (Mt Carmel convent school) in Floriana when I was young. (1964-66) I returned in 1986 and the nuns let me look round. I beleive the convent is still there, but the school has moved. I would love the heritage video too. Thanks for your time doing these.
