The aftersweats..

..is out of control in Malta. Me and Nema went for a run, and did some circuit training in the park, I came home about 45 minutes ago, have showered and been sitting very still, but I'm still sweating!!

Well, it was a nice workout, tomorrow we run for a little bit longer. There has been a training break for about a month due to a lot of visits and just general lazyness, but now it is nice to take it up again.

As soon as I have stopped sweating I'm gonna get dressed and go down to Hugo's for dinner with Soffla. Nice food and great company -what's not to like? 

Nazis in parliament

Yes, that is exactly what happened in the election in Sweden. A party that hide behind the term 'democrats' in their name, and have obvious rasist and almost nazi like opinions have actually won seats in the Riksdag now. It makes you wonder why, it makes you wonder what's wrong with Sweden as it is today that makes people want to vote for a party like that?

Well, it is very sad and this seems to be what is on everyones lips, blogs and facebookpages today, and probably will be for some time now, and it doesn't make me feel very proud to be Swedish. Quite the opposite actually...

What's wrong with us?!

Saturday evening turned out the exact same way as Friday night, and I think this confirms it -we are getting old, or at least older. :)

With the same intentions as on Friday, of going to the pub for a drink, we had dinner at home first, then we were 'only gonna watch one episode of Arrested development' and then get ready to go out.

So, what happens? We wake up at 23.30, all cuddled up together, we decide that we're gonna continue watching that episode we fell asleep to..-and wake up at 2.30!

But on the bright side, it was very cosy and I feel extremely rested now, and ready to take on this day! Currently I'm cooking a soup for lunch, and after that I think we'll go for a swim!

Messing!

Of course we managed to squeeze in some messing about on the way back to the bus!

Adventures in Valletta!

A little picture summary of our adventure in Valletta today!

We arrive in Valletta Terminus safely

The hunt for Valletta Waterfront begins. I've been there before, but every time by car so I had no idea how to walk there.

 

 

 

 

 

The hunt continues.... some nice views and a lot of sweating on the way...

 

We might actually have hit the ghetto of Valletta at some point here...but we didn't give up, we were determined to find the waterfront...

 

And finally we did!

 

 

Great success! Nice view, good cocktails and nice food! What a great day!

What a great day!

Just got back from adventures in Valletta! We went there with the ambition to have lunch at Valletta waterfront, but being two almost retared people when it comes to finding our way to places, it obviously took a while to find the famous waterfront.

Anyways, we finally found it, and we have had an amazing day there, pics to come later. Now, we're off to enjoy the only shopping we did today, in the garden -two cigars!! I don't even know how to smoke cigards, and neither does he, but we thought we had to try anyways :)

Laters!

An old turtle couple?

So, yesterday after work I was in a great mood, felt awake and happy. The weather was great, so we decided to go for a drink along The Strand in Sliema.

But first... We couldn't resist buying two of these little fellows:

We bought two, named them Tobias and Buster, and bought a bowl and food as well. Then we went for a drink, with our new pets. Put the bowl on the table, and immediately got tagged as the crazy turtle couple by the rest of the guests. I think that they tought that we had them for a while, and just bring them from home whenever we go out, not that we just bought them :)

Anyways, we strolled back to St Julians and saw that Cat was working, in the restaurant, in a lovely new job uniform involving a pink(!) tie!! So we laughed a little bit and then we sat down and ordered some wine and food.

Nema, who recently quit her job at the same restaurant came by, laughed even more at the tie, and also had some food and wine.

After this, I estimate that the time was about 21.30 tops, and we wanted to go home and leave the turtles to maybe go for a drink somewhere.

So we went home, put the turtles in more water, lie down on the couch and cuddled a bit, and woke up hours later...ok, so we missed the evening, let's watch a movie then. So we turn on the TV in the bedroom and decide to watch a movie instead, and woke up..now!!

Are we getting old? 12 hours sleep?! The crazy, serial napping turtle couple - that's us! But we're fine with it! :)

La famiglia!

My beloved family has now arrived, hence the very low blog activity. We have been busy!

So far we have;

• Had wine and cheese platter in the garden
• Been to St Peters Pool
• Had dinner at Buffalo Bill's
• Had a drink at BG
• Admired my ring!

More to come... :)

Surprise!

The surprise b'day weekend has started off very well :) We're in a 5 star hotel in Malta, staying the whooole weekend, and we're gonna do nothing but sleep, eat, drink and swim!

Now it's time for room service!

Tired!

I'm very sleepy today, and I can't really focus. I'm trying to write facilitator notes for a presentation but I have major issues concentrating. Partly because I overly excited for tonight and the whole weekend, but mainly because I'm too tired.

I blame the extremely cosy wine bar in Birgu that we went to last night with some friends. It was absolutely awesome and we will definitely be coming back to I guess it was worth it :)

Del Borgo is the name of wine bar, located in beautiful Birgu.
