Valletta, Malta. October, 2015


Every building in this Maltese fortress town is golden. Made from local limestone over the centuries. Really spectacular at sunset when the whole place takes on a rosy glow. Oh, and there are stairs everywhere. Limestone and marble stairs to get from the port (sea level), to the fortified city above. And then once you get up there, be ready to encounter even more...just like this couple did as they misread their map, made a wrong turn and wound up with a few dozen more steps than they'd bargained for.
