    One thing you'll find a lot in Malta is handmade lace. I really thought it looked a lot like what you have in Brussels but then I have no knowledge of it at all.
    If you like it, you can shop for lace to your hearts content.

    The photo shows that one of my hostesses also tried a hand at lacemaking herself. She told me it was positively relaxing to do this. I guess you can only make lace if you concentrate fully. Looks very complicated!

     Thank you. It was lovely to see Malta tru the eyes of others. Zejtun is my original home. If I may be a little silly: The Cafe is Cafe Cordina. :o)

     Looks very interesting, we're maybe thinking of visiting in summer or autumn. Thanks for the birthday wishes!

     Yikes. Your host says lace making is relaxing. She must be patient woman, looking at your pic.Cool Malta pages.

     The maltese pastries you meant are named "pastizzi". The cafe in question should be Gordina; in Republic Street. Ciao!
