Probably my favourite museum object seen on the trip was this George Cross awarded ‘to the brave people of Malta’ in 1942. On display at Fort St Elmo.

A few days pottering in Malta. I’m a sucker for a good reliquary and this was the best I saw. Skull of St Publius in the museum of Mdina Cathedral.
