Valetta, Malta - blue hour

Valetta, Malta. The harbour in the blue hour. Nov. 2011.

The night is falling when we have this photo of the harbour, taken from our cruise ship Constellation from Celebrity cruises on her way through the Mediterranean Sea while we close up our 1 day visit to Valetta.

Costa Concordia arrives in Malta

Costa Concordia arrives in Malta. Nov. 18th. 2011

Nov. 18th 2011 - 2 months before her fatal sinking in Italy the big ship arrived in the harbour of Valetta in Malta. Photo taken from the panorama road in the Valetta Harbour.

We thought our ship Constellation from Celebrity Cruises was big - but this one was really huge as it passed the gates to the harbour.

It seems they now will try to bring her out in one piece - a real challenge to be launched in May 2012.
