An example of Eye-Candy!

Wendy and Rob from California stopped in Malta during a cruise trip around the Mediterranean which finished in Barcelona. From Slow Travel Trip Reports:

The Island is swamped and over crowded with 'tourists'. The people who live there are lovely people and always so kind whenever we have an exchange. As a matter of fact, earlier I had asked a gentleman in front of a mens' clothing shoppe where to find a cellular phone store and he was so kind. He had given me directions, but we didn't go far enough and he came to get us and took us where he had meant. We hadn't gone far enough and were about to go off down the wrong street. He even had abandoned his shop to help us make the correction. That was very very appreciated...

Just a bit on the Cathedral of St. John: it is a real beauty. The exterior is beautiful, but rather plain, the interior is another story. It is a terrific example of Eye-Candy! What a sight for the eyes. Inspired by Italian architecture, designed by Gerolamo Cassar, this major Church is in the style of High Baroque. This Cathedral is one of my top 5 Churches of the world. The ceilings were painted by Mattia Preti, a calabrian from Taverna. This Church is the home to Grand Masters and Knights of the order of St. John. The eight pointed Maltese cross is represented everywhere. It is rich with art, there is a Caravaggio and numerous works by the Grand Masters throughout the Nave and Chapels...
