Re the CRUISE EUROPA being a Greek vessel owned by a Greek company but registered in Italy. I have heard that this is because of the prevailing financial situation in Greece? Is this true? If so ,will we be seeing a migration of registrations from the Greek register? Can anyone confirm these rumours? regards.

Thank you B.Clark, I may be biased being Maltese re the beauty of our Grand Harbour ,but I second your comment and appreciate it very much. regards.

Hi Jad, but these are wild ones my friend, you think I dare to present her with wild ones.....that would mean cold meals for me and that would not do....he..he...Best regards my friend. When is MEN's Day ?

@ Emmanuel
I shall clarify for you my previous comment:

Flowers >>> International WOMEN'S day ( 8th March ) !

Would be more appropriate 'red roses' on your photo ..... however, since you have shot 'yellow flowers' on your photo they will have to do in this occasion hahaha
I hope I have explained the connection with the date 8th March that I had previously mentioned in my below comment.

Emmanuel, we have flowers in the UK but we don't have such a Grand Harbour!!

Thanks B.Clark, but I think the foreground is much more nicer than the background, even though these flowers are growing wild. Regards

Hi Jadran ,can you enlighten me on that date, what is its significant?

Another good one Emmanuel, nice background as usual

Emmanuel, you should have posted this wonderful photo on 8th March (because of the beautiful flowers) hehehe

Thanks Dennis, greetings from Malta to Montreal. Regards.

Fascinating but very dangerous, I had to climb onto a crumbling bastion wall with windy weather added to take this photo, but at least it came out right.Regards.

I like
