From December 2001 we organised a guided tour of Gozo for everyone, rather than leaving Malta's second island to individuals to visit if they wished. This is the group that year with the local guide at the left, in front of the temples at Ggantija.

This was the visiting group in 2003. The weather had been stormy the day before this trip to Gozo and it was thought then the island hop would not have been possible. Thankfully it was, though it was not as clear and bright as the previous year. The group here is gathered in front of the Cathedral in the Citadel in Victoria. More photos are included in a special page listed on the left.
