Walked down that street so many times, doesn't look like it's changed much in the past 15 years since we first went. Making me nostalgic as we usually stay around Qawra/Bugibba. We used to like to drink on the top by the bus station late afternoon when the sun was starting to go down, where the pink and blue parasols were, lovely.
It's a lovely part of Malta, and the Dolmen Hotel was Fantstic. I should be able to sort the interview with you very soon as finally got my Studio Sorted. I will be in contact soon. Great video, by the way.
We visited Malta in the 90s, and loved it; we found the Maltese people very welcoming We stayed in slima , and could.not believe how it had changed,we loved the old buses, So sad to see new buses being used.,we visited the Popeyes village,although the name Of the village escape my memory,also ta- Ali village,all Nissan huts, with different crafts .
Nice walk Steve. It looks so hot though! I kept on hoping you'd find somewhere nice that was open so you could go inside and cool down and have a meal and drink. Thanks for all your videos.
Hi Steve an excellent video and what a lovely couple you met from the UK and Sam the man who sells tours. I would never travel to Malta in June, July, August or September far to hot for me 37 to 40 to go sightseeing. I was in Malta back in March 2023 and the weather was just perfect for me as it was not to cold or to hot but perfect.
Tourist street indeed Steve, you were meeting loads of them lol. The sports bar opposite the San Antonio is very popular and the Chinese restaurant is really good although the owner is a dour looking Maltese guy. Loved the walk along the street and can't wait to get back there in August although hoping the temperature has calmed down a bit. Glad you had good hols in New Orleans👍
Yes I loved new Orleans, and there will be more videos coming up, might come over in the evening or early evening cuz the gopro not that great at night, and loads of copyright music about, thank you for the support Gill
Mary and John from Sydney Australia are my parents! Funny to see them show up here haha 😂 Dad left Malta when he was 16 with his parents, so this is his first time back after a very very long time.
Another nice video Steve, surprised how quite it was for the time of day and time of year. Back in the day it was busy from about 10am. Have a good day ✌️
Lots of english in that area, used to be known as blackpool of Malta old days .loads of force's guys and brits....its a lot better in the evening, But gopro really bad in low light, and I am off the beer also ..
Walked miles around the back streets of Buggiba and Qwara and finished up I St Paul's Bay.Think I have been every shop In Tourist St enjoyed the video Steve.👍
Coming back in June 24 going to try a few of your walks "getting lost in" love those videos some of the nature walks I'm going to do as well keep up the good work Steve doing a great job mate.😊👍
Used to stay at my brother's summer place across from La Stalla in the old days when we visited but not for the last few years as the area has become run down and very untidy. The Bugibba waterfront is nice for long leisurely walks but Bugibba itself has really gone downhill in my opinion.
When was this Steve? I have walked to the bus station everyday this week and didn't see you. Staying at the Qawra palace hotel. The new pool deck on the roof is really good and the views are magnificent. My Favourite part of the islands.
Yes it was Tuesday, I did the St Pauls bay video and tried to meet john hes been many times and missed me everytime, how long you here for ? If we have time how about we do a hotel walkaround contact me FB
Lovely video, too hot for me tho, nice to see a few Brummies there, hubby was there recently at St Paul’s Bay, he was hoping to bump into you, shame he missed you.
Hi Steve, I've been following your videos for several years now and learnt such a lot about the islands. I'm finally back in beautiful Malta after five years. Been coming since 1966...I can't be that old surely? 😂 Would you be free over the next fortnight for my Maltese friend and I to meet you? Staying in Birgu. Kind regards Sue
In 2016, we stayed in Bugibba and although we enjoyed it we were surprised how few of the shopkeepers, wait staff etc speak Maltese. As a Canadian-born Maltese I was looking forward to showing off my Maltese but only a handful could converse in the native tongue. :( I guess joining the EU has its good/bad benefits. Hope to be back soon to celebrate my Dad’s 100th birthday. Thanks for sharing your experiences. 🇨🇦
Hi Steve love the videos, coming to Malta in September and would like to go to Gozo for a few hours , is it possible to get the buses to travel around like in Malta?
Yes, absolutely its more easy !! Most of the buses go from Rabat ( victoria ) but maybe you need more then a few hours ? Guess if depends on what you want to do ? Now there is the fast ferry from valletta to Mgarr and mostly your always find a bus waiting there to take you to Rabat , wish you happy travels

Be thinking of walking around early evening but the Gopro not great at night

The old buses had to be changed...I know a bloke that does them up it takes 100.000 euros each bus, its like a hobby to him

Walked there many times.Thanks again for bringing back memories.👍👍😊😊
Glad you enjoyed it Marion
It's not possible to get to Malta,so it's great to see you're videos.😊😊
Another nice video Steve, surprised how quite it was for the time of day and time of year. Back in the day it was busy from about 10am. Have a good day ✌️
Thanks 👍 Yes I thought that the shop owner saying its worse that coivd was but Tanti icecream says evenings are great I guess by the sea would be ?
Looks like a nice place with friendly people. Good to see you are so well known there.

@@davidcole7900 so you not in malta now ? ok drop me a line when you are over
I will be in Malta from the 3rd to 13th of June will be good to meet up with you have cisk or 2.😊👍

its a shame, But it as always been a bit run down or untidy because of its mix of shops.houses and bars
Enjoy walking around that beautiful place steve
Thanks 👍

Maybe Next time! Its hard to get around everyone
I believe the organ was shipped from my home town of Sunderland from Sunderland's Holy Trinity Church!
Yes I think so !!
