See the clouds they’re giving life below…
Note: Title is borrowed from lyrics of “Clouds” by Bread – it just seemed fitting. 
Yesterday and Friday were rather cloudy, not in the sense of a thick grey mass (such as today’s!), but the more dramatic kind, which I’m so fond of!
I spent most of Saturday indoors, trying to relax and force my stupid headache into submission (which seems mission impossible and starts worrying me, by the way!). In the afternoon I noticed we’d be running out of cat food by today, so I had to go out to get it from Victoria. Though I grumbled a little, I made the best of it… I took my camera with me and drove around a little in search for suitable subjects to match the beautiful celestial background!
This is the pretty church of Santa Lucija, just a kilometre or so from Victoria.
From there I proceeded to Dwejra, but the views down at the Azure Window were not what I expected. From higher up it was a different story though!
From there I headed back home and discovered that sometimes you don’t really have to venture far for a nice shot: Gharb’s parish church is just a stone’s throw from our house… (the time showing on the clock is wrong – it actually was after 6 pm!)
Finally, this one I actually took on Friday, for Renzo‘s blog post on Discover Gozo. The chapel at Ta’ Hamet (between Xaghra and Xewkija) was built as a gesture of thanksgiving for Gozo’s victory over Napoleon’s forces. What, you didn’t know that part of Gozo’s glorious past yet? Then I suggest you hurry over to the blog, where the Kempinski Hotel San Lawrenz shows and tells a lot of interesting snippets about our island! 
I’ve got more pics to show of this weekend, but they are completely different from these cloudy shots, so they merit their own post – coming soon!

Gozo is such a breath of fresh air. Thanks for sharing your photos.
thanks Joe – I’m happy you like my pics!
I have been lurking here on your blog for quite a while now but have given in and today I had to comment! Your wonderful pictures have kept me going since we last visited the island in August but now I read your wonderful posts desperate for our return in just three short weeks.
What is the weather like now? Is it warm enough to swim in the sea or swimming pool in mid-May. Thank you for making me feel like I am still in Gozo with every picture post.
