Malta day 3!

Day 2 on the top deck of the blowy bus. I thought Malta was really child friendly, ever since we arrive everyone has been cooing over Scarlett totally forgot yesterday we did a bit of exploring around the streets by the hotel and found a brilliant toy, the one we got was a Toy Story book, with a huge poster of Andy's bedroom and 12 little Toy Story figures to go with it all for 10 euro 99c. Which will keep Scarlett entertained all holiday. Oh right yes about Maltese and children....this morning we were driving around and I looked into a café and read a sign which said: PLEASE KEEP CHILDREN SEATED AT ALL TIMES. Erm yea ok because they have the ability to just sit in one chair. Oh and Scarlett felt it was necessary to tell our rep this Morning that we got on the wrong bus last night, which they both found hilarious. Ha Ha wouldn't have been funny if we were sleeping under the stars Scarlett! Anyway today went on a harbour boat cruise, but first stop full English Breakfast! I found a gorgeous little café and it had to be done and the weather was beautiful, just like the start of summer in England. The cruise was even better than I imagined, not just because of the beautiful scenery around the 2 harbours but because it was free! As I had booked the bus trip I got an hour and a half out on the beautiful blue sea. Can't say Scarlett saw much of it as she fell asleep (She was so angry when she went through my photos later she said in a very stern voice "Mummy! Why did you take a picture of me like that?!" it was brilliant!) We jumped off the boat and hopped into a souvenir shop where I bought my best buy of the trip, a gorgeous Christmas scarf cream and green with snowflakes all over it and little houses down the bottom. Well actually for the rest of the afternoon and holiday, it was Scarlett's blanket for when we were on the top deck of the bus. We went along the coast to the Blue Lagoon, unfortunately we didn't have enough time to get off and look around as we were on the last bus but it was stunning all the same. When we got back to the hotel (Which at one point I didn't think we would, the drivers in Malta are nutty)I had a long hot soak in the bath until I was lobster red and hanging arms and legs out of the bath because it was too hot. There is something about going on holiday and having baths, it's much more relaxing not worrying about having a proper deep bath and thinking about how much money it will cost at the end of the month,as all the water is paid for in the hotel bill! At dinner I overheard a family from Burnley which had me giggling through my dinner Dad: "Do you want Whaaa Ice Cream?" Kid: "Huh?" Dad: "Whaa ice cream?" Kid: "WHA?" 5 minutes later the Dad come back with all 3 colours of ice cream including Whaa (White) I couldn't help but think of Benidorm with their accents. They were a lovely family though, just need to make their T's more pronounced, poor kid was very confused. We made it to the kids club tonight, I was the only adult to stay with my child while the other children's parents sat in the bar upstairs, not judging....just saying (Well it was Bingo time) I didn't know how long I could last, I managed to entertain 3 of them playing what's the time Mr Wolf? for about 5 minutes. 2 of the kids didn't even know how to play it, I was like WHAT?! Everyone know how to play that game! We went outside the little room to the patio area where a few other children were playing and being told off by the hotel Manager for climbing into the flower beds, he then looked at me like all of the little rugrats were mine! When he had left I had to tell the kids off for climbing in them again 5 minutes later. Is it acceptable to tell off other peoples children? By that point I had had enough and exactly an hour after we arrived we were snuggled back into our hotel room eating Pringles and chocolate and I was watching Scarlett writing in her books I had bought her from a charity shop. She said she wanted to do writing like me so I didn't want to crush her artistic talent. Tomorrow we are off to the Popeye Village Disney film set, I am so excited!
