Awakening
Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine...I can't get enough of sunshine! The weather has been so amazing for the past two days that my mood is on an all time high. Having hardly had a proper winter this year, I think we are in for an early summer.. ahhh I have an overdose of happy hormones ;-) I was so worked up for the past month that I hardly had time for anything. Work and commitments were kind of swallowing me up.. so consuming. So this morning I took a deliberate break and we decided to go for a hike in the country side. And what can I say: it was so beautiful!!! All the time you would hear me say: "Wow, look here, oooohhh do you see the flowers? How blue the sky and how clear the sea! It's so beautiful, isn't it?!!
I love the first days of warm weather. It's like a spa treatment for the senses. The sun rises higher, spending more and stronger light and the days start to get longer again. Everywhere are flowers, rich colours and scents. If that doesn't give you an euphoric feeling that i don't know what does. The season is just perfect for country walks, not cold, not too hot.. only a slide breeze. And if you haven't discovered Malta by walk then you haven't seen the real beauty of it yet. So get your hiking shoes on! Here is a place I totally recommend:
We went to Ghajn Tuffieha, Riviera and walked all the way to Gnejna Bay, Mgar and back. It took us about 2 1/2 hours. Here some snapshots:

Riviera, one of my favourite beaches.
There are small trails that you can follow and they will take you to these sand dunes. Attention, very high and slippery!
To one side is Riviera and to the other side you can see Gnejna Bay. Look at the water! Amazing, right?!
Ya, some rock sliding. Fun but dangerous. Do not do it when it rains or when wet.
Down at Gnejna Bay. Totally idyllic....mmmmm that's how I love Malta.

Welcome back to the blogosphere, I know how it can be getting bogged down with work.
Great photo above, are the levels of blue in the sky with the help of Photoshop or is that the view that you got?
Thanks Steve and sorry for the late reply!
Basically all the images are straight out of the camera except the last one were I "burned the edges".
