Malta - day 2: exploring the island

Our first full day in Malta has been spent mostly driving around the island. We visited Mosta Dome, where a bomb was dropped during mass during World War II but then miraculously didn’t explode. The dome dominates the skyline around Mosta and is the fourth largest dome in Europe. We tried to take a boat to Comino but there didn’t seem to be any running (probably because we are outside of the main holiday season) so we then drove to Wied iż Żurrieq on the western coast of Malta to visit the Blue Grotto – a natural arch in the cliffs.
