Just like Oprah, right?! Except there is only one, and you can’t buy it for your friends. Okay, maybe not exactly like Oprah. I digress.
My favorite sight in Malta was St. Agatha’s Tower, which the kids aptly nicknamed “the read castle”. It was built in 1649 as part of a coastal protection plan, and a key player in communications with Valletta. Unfortunately, it was closed for renovation, but the good part of that was we had the outside all to ourselves!



I loved it because everywhere we went, there it was! From the front of the car, I’d yell, “There it is! There’s the red castle.” No response. Nobody loved it like I did. I was the only player in this delightful game!

We spent many a seaside meal with a “red castle” view! See if you can spot it.


Maybe next time we’ll be able to explore the inside! And maybe next time someone else will love it too!
