Yes dear readers, I am writing this post live from Malta!
The flight over, though a little nerve-wracking (since it was my first flight alone and only my second ever) went completely smoothly, even the landing was good. I guess ryanair aren't that bad after all. After collecting my bag and having my first dose of the Mediterranean sunshine, I was greeted by a crazily enthusiastic Mark who was waving like and idiot (which made me cringe but also laugh), and we set off for his home where I'm staying.
Meeting his dad wasn't as bad as I had first thought it would be, but I felt very nervous, and a little more so when meeting his sister. They did like the presents I got them and seemed to like me, though time will tell how much. Mark certainly seems happy to have me around, and I must say I feel the same about him.
The climate is the only problem really. The first day was a bit much and I found myself sleepy with an enormous headache. Mark, however, was an absolute angel and looked after me with water and an attempt at a smoothie as well as cuddles by the million.
This morning was better, and I found myself whisked away to meet Mark's best friend Glan (finally, as we've been playing guild wars together for as long as Mark and I have). It was lovely to finally meet him, and we had fun together. I hope I'll be seeing him again really soon.
And this afternoon you ask? Well, that was for Mark and I.
We head out to the wine festival tonight, which I'm looking forward to, though it'll be an entirely new experience of course. And tomorrow promises some early morning fun on the beach and hopefully a lot of quality time with my other half.
I'll keep you posted.
