Finally the sun's rays shone through

The moment we had been waiting for arrived. The sun came out from behind the clouds and its rays came through the doorway of Mnajdra Temples, astronomically aligned to mark the two Equinox in March and September as well as the Solstices in June and December. The events have become popular with the international press as well as travellers and locals alike.

    Thank you Tannis. I've been meaning to do this for years and finally got to experience it. I was pretty impressed that I might go for the Solstice on 21st June. It's one of those things one has to have on the 'must do' list during one's life since it's quite unusual.
