Walk around ~ Fort Chambrays amazing viewpoint on the island of GOZO - Malta ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡น

Hi all ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป

With this post Iโ€™m joining in at the Wednesday Walk challenge and Make me Smile challenge. That are hosted by @tattoodjay and @elizacheng every week on Wednesday.

โ€ผ๏ธHave a look: Here in the Wednesday Walk Community if you want to join in! or at @tattoodjay โ€™s Post here: โ€œWalk A walk in the woods at Hamlin Crossingโ€
It tells you also the rules of joining in, at the end of his post ๐Ÿ˜Join in it is fun ๐Ÿคฉ

Todayโ€™s selection of photographs will be of 11 photos ๐Ÿ˜Ž they are taken all with my iPhone on 23 august 2020 on the island of Gozo that is part of the archipelago Malta ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡น
I lived at that time there 1 year and we were about the move back to Spain, here we are exploring areas we havenโ€™t explored yet. We crossed to Gozo by ferry โ›ด and stayed a while.

I will follow the time stamps on my photos for you. So it looks like you are walking along with me ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป around this fort towards the view point with amazing views ๐Ÿคฉ that I will show you ๐Ÿฅฐ
The towns name is Gฤงajnsielem.

Location of my walk on Google maps, see the yellow star โญ๏ธ:

The part of the fort we walk past is located just above the viewpoint on this screenshot of Google maps:

Letโ€™s start our walk ๐Ÿ˜Š

We reached a part of Fort Chambray that is located in Gฤงajnsielem Gozo - Malta ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡น

As we walk past itโ€ฆ we feel small as the thick walls tower high above us out.

See the layers of land on the horizonโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜‰

Standing on the corner and looking up we see a corner tower.

A bigger view from the far end ๐Ÿ˜Ž stunning right.

Next we see the first photo/ thumbnail in this post.

Letโ€™s walk towards the viewpoint now ๐Ÿ˜Š

We see:

Just amazingโ€ฆ let me tell you what you see in this photo.
In the middle you see the smallest island Comino and Malta behind it stretching towards the right side of the photo. (Malta is the largest island)

Showing you the edges of Malta ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡น On the right.

Our view further towards the rightโ€ฆ of the island of Gozo. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
See all the layers of land, fields with wheats.

A little bit more of the same view. See how dry it is, and if you didnโ€™t knowโ€ฆ Gozo is the greenest island of them all.

Here you can see the high cliffs I showed you before too in the back. They go all around the island of Gozo. Remember the post with the window in the rock formations?
If notโ€ฆ here you can have a look : Cliffs and rock formations of GOZO ~ MALTA ISLANDS ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡น

Walking a bit further back we see this little path with a view towards the right of the island again.

And with this last photo I say; โ€œthatโ€™s all for today!โ€ ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜‰ Iโ€™m happy you joined me. Until next time ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I just moved over the last days if you didnโ€™t knowโ€ฆ they have been some busy days and still a few more to come, so Iโ€™m trying to catch up again and start posting and engaging from today onwards more ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ˜Ž

Hope you enjoyed my photos of this little walk around this fort on the tiny island of Gozo - Malta.
Thank you for looking and reading ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป Really much appreciated!

Any questions or comments, let me know. Always happy to help.
Have a great Wednesday all ๐Ÿ˜Ž
Grtz Jackie

Hello dear friend @littlebee4 good day
Moving is always stressful and it takes a long time to finish putting everything in its place, the good thing is that when you finish it you begin to enjoy and plan things in a new home
What a beautiful island you have chosen for the walk on Wednesday, beautiful views, I appreciate that you have shown us these beautiful images
Have a beautiful day

Hello dear friend @jlufer ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜Š good day to you.
Thank you so much.
Yes, moving is stressful and unfortunately this isnโ€™t the last one. It is only temporarily.
So I will only unpack a little. After getting organised here the next days it will be fine.
We have a garden ๐Ÿชด yayโ€ฆ so will be lovely going forward.

Malta islands are stunning to explore. So much history to see.
And the views, always stunning ๐Ÿคฉ
Happy to share today again ๐Ÿ˜Ž
Have a beautiful day too! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿปโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ

They were just massive, and I believe this part of the fort is not in use any longer. I couldnโ€™t enter.
Some great corners on the islands to explore for sure. And all views are wonderful.
Thank you so much for visiting @tattoodjay ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Ž
Enjoy your mid-week !

What a view! I am always amazed at the caste/fort structures and the skill they used in constructing them The best views, the most advantageous spot (Of course! That is the whole point!)

Then, the city is built up around it in the forward life. Great pictures from so many different spots. I hope you have a great walk!

The views were stunning there Denise.
I like castles and these kind of forts too, ๐Ÿ˜Ž stunning structures. Malta is full of them.
Strategically placed indeed.

Wow! That Fort is impressive. I can imagine how small you must have felt. It always amazes me how thick, strong and solid they built everything back in those days.

I enjoyed the views of the fields of wheat!

Thank you for sharing with us, @littlebee4!

Good luck with settling in over the next few days๐Ÿ™!

Yes, it was soooo large, and Iโ€™m not big to start with hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ
Walking on the road and those walls towering high above you, the towers on the edge. It is massive.
I like seeing these buildings.
This part we couldnโ€™t visit just walk on the outside around it. But the viewsโ€ฆ stunning.

You are welcome @jacoalberts ๐Ÿ˜Š happy to share.

Thank you so much, much appreciated!

Of course, that is always a possibility l but living on the islands for 1 year was enough.

Letโ€™s explore the rest of the world a bit more. In 2 weeks we go on our first far away holiday since the pandemic. Canโ€™t waitโ€ฆ counting the days ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Š
Thank you so much @jacoalberts ๐Ÿ˜Š you too.

Going on your first far away holiday since the pandemic! That sounds exciting! Yes, if you prefer exploring other places where you haven't been yet, it makes sense, go for it and enjoy it!

Thank you, @littlebee4! Getting better every day. I just need to not get ahead of myself again and remain patient...lol.

It sure is excitingโ€ฆ we love to travel and explore.
We are going to New England US. We sure will enjoy it. Looking forward to some cooler temperatures and more green too. As it is still crazy hot here.

Good @jacoalberts best to listen to your body, take it easy and let it recover before doing to much.
Letโ€™s be a bit longer patientโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Ž

Enjoy your day further ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐ŸŒณโ˜€๏ธ

That sounds really exciting! Yes, I can imagine you are looking forward to cooler temperatures... I heard about the heat you've experienced...or actually still are, as you say.

I hear parts of Europe are also now facing challenges with the supply of electricity due to the war with Russia... Will you also be affected by that?

Yes, patience is the answer...

Thank you, @littlebee4! Enjoy your weekend๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘!

It isโ€ฆ counting the days hehehe ๐Ÿคญ
The heat isnโ€™t funny this year. Especially when our last landlord didnโ€™t want to fix the a/c and temperatures inside where 31+ degreesโ€ฆ not funny at all.
So it will be nice to breath in the cool fresh air. Especially in the evenings and mornings.

At the moment Spain isnโ€™t affected electricity wise. But who knows, if a few countries are affected, more will follow, as I hear the Netherlands, Belgium and France are already helping Germany out.
It can have a snowball effect. Letโ€™s hope for the best ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

Hope you keeping a bit longer too it. Having patience to recover. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿค“

You are we,come, I will. Thanks a lot @jacoalberts you do the same. Enjoy the weekend!

I'll hope for the best that the electricity will not affect you. We are having a lot of issues with electricity here. So, I know, it is not nice at all and highly frustrating!

I am doing fine so far, thank you!

Stay cool, @littlebee4๐Ÿ‘!

Thank you so much @jacoalberts ๐Ÿ˜Š letโ€™s hope. I do know times without power. Especially in rural mountainous areas. It is frustrating to say the least.

Good to hear, keep goingโ€ฆ soon your flu is gone ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป
Thanks you too ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜‰

Wow the region is extremely dry, looks more like winter Africa than an island, obviously burns under the midday sun all year round.

Fort a prominent feature to enjoy, lovely photography and most enjoyable walk.

Yes, the Maltese islands are extremely dry. Unfortunately they kept building and got rid of all trees and nature. It is the 4th most densely populated placeโ€ฆ no space for nature left.
One of the reasons we only lasted one year with the work relocation.
It wasnโ€™t healthy all the dust from earth and building work everywhere.

Thank you so much @joanstewart ๐Ÿ˜Šโ˜€๏ธ Much appreciated!
Enjoy your day ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป
