Malta when it rains
It’s only raining very little during the summer in Malta. In winter therefore much more.
In Malta there are two kinds of rain, no rain at all or very strong rain.
The streets are mutating to small rivers and the valleys are flooded full of water. It can happen that the traffic will stop for a few hours. Maltese drivers are normally not mean and are cautious not to drive crazy through the puddles if pedestrians are walking beside – so everything in Malta is slowing down if it rains.

The wastewater-system
Malta owns an old wastewater-system. During the summer months, when it rains very little it is adequate. But during the winter season it overflows in almost any site. The water is directly directed into the sea. In the bays you can clearly see the dirt washed into the sea from the streets - it’s somehow disgusting sometimes. There is no reason for improvements, because it affects only for a few days a year and it doesn’t influence the main income of the state, tourism.

Peters pool
Peters pool is a small sheltered bay in the south of Malta. Reaching this bay is not very easy. No buses go through; even with a car its not straight forward. On one hand the way to reach the bay is not signaled very well and on the other hand the road is very narrow. In some places almost too narrow for just one car to pass through and traffic passes both ways!
Bay Street
The Bay Street shopping mall consists of 3 floors and houses shops for following products: Clothing (Mexx), books, restaurants (Argentinean Steakhouse, McDonalds), cafes, bars (Hard Rock Cafe), an arcade gaming centre (Jokers Family Fun for kids/teens and adults) and much more.
Senglea (L-Isla)
The peninsula of Senglea (L-Isla) lies southwards of Valletta in the Grand Harbor. On the left side of the peninsula there is the French Creek in which there are also the docks with the huge cranes. On the other side is the Dockyard Creek and Vittoriosa (Birgu). In the south of Senglea is Cospicua (Bormla). Senglea was founded by the Grand Master ‘De La Sengle‘ in the year of 1551. From him the city also got its name: Senglea.
