Gozo 2

My second trip to Gozo was just as wonderful as the first. We rented bikes again and went to the beach and explored some of Gozo's countryside, not to mention biking up and down tons of hills.
Three random sheep we found. That's the amazing thing about Gozo--it is much more relaxed--so relaxed that sheep can wander around, even on the roads. With the exception of Victoria, the capital, there are very few advertisements and no bilboards. Everyone seems to be going about his business, yet very congenial at the same time.

I have a question about Gozo--I know it's another island. Is it another country, or more like a different state but still part of Malta? I wondered because you said it had a capital, which surprised me since it's so small. Mom

Gozo is part of the Maltese chain of islands (Malta, Gozo, Comino, and Filfla). It is strange that it has a capital, and even more strange--they have their own language! I suppose they were their own country at one time, but I don't know for sure.
