Post-trip Extension to Paul's Malta

“When it was day, they did not recognize the land; but they observed a bay with a beach, onto which they planned to run the ship if possible. And they let go the anchors and left them in the sea, meanwhile loosing the rudder ropes; and they hoisted the mainsail to the wind and made for shore. But striking a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck fast and remained immovable, but the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves” (Acts 27:39-41).

July 26

Arrive and check-in to the Meridian Hotel, located on the shore of the sea with commanding views of the fortress.  Our hotel is within easy walking distance to the fortressed city.  It will be a great afternoon to get a feel for this English speaking island that has had prominence in our own history.
