Bergen, Norway (1)

I definitely switched season last two days, the Maltese warmth and sun became Scandinavian icy cold wind (and later rain). Nevertheless, I grabbed the opportunity to do some sightseeing in Bergen as the 2-days workshop only starts tomorrow...

My conclusions of that afternoon outside:

1. Bergen is rather pretty, no surprise the center is Unesco classified -- Jérémy, did you know that?
2. Norway is worth a second and longer visit, preferably in spring or summer!
3. Sauna is perfect afterwards to re-warm your bones and body :-)

Malta (5)

Also the last late afternoon was spent on the beach near the hotel

Malta (4)

Company visit, where airplanes get their C and D checks. Not just impressive, overwhelming... and tangible ;-)


Cruise in and around Valletta's inner seas, marinas, etc.

Malta (3)

Prehistoric 'housing'... as disappointing as Carnac's dolmen :-( Luckily the coast was superb!


Blue Grotto - another impressive part of the Maltese coast

Malta (2)

Room with a view - those bungalows (with pool) must be amazing during summer!


First real contact with the sea... not a sand beach but still verrrrry nice setting.


My travel mates and I at the church of ??? - can't remember the name :-$


Apetizer at the church square...


Lunch in a pittoresque setting... with a french-speaking waiter who learned the job in Belgium!?!


Cliffs with the natural gate - impressive that sea!

Malta (1)

After flying via Italy to Malta and a terrific bus ride to the coast, we headed for Gozo!


Il Castil @ Victoria (Gozo)


A typical Maltese public bus. Notice the lack of doors - what a safe feeling!


Sunset near our 'bungalows' that evening

Que pizza!

After a thorough inspection of my brother's new place in Brussels, we went for diner... The pizzas were awesome!

Bye bye UK

The project is over! I took me last flight back from sunny Manchester airport. I can start dreaming where to fly to with the VLM points collected ;-)
