Step 9: Since I'm not actually in a hotel, and I have a whole day before my 22:10 flight back to Gatwick, I stashed my bags with a shop near the Triton fountain for 3 Euros. As I was staying right next to the Sliema ferry I took a trip out there and back. Honestly don't bother. OK it's better than home but there's really nothing to recommend it, just shops and a few rocky shores where you can swim. Breakfasted on Aranchini which is pretty cool

So back to Valletta and down to St Elmo's Fort at the tip. The museum was missable, but there were some pretty good views to be had and I think I would have regreted not visiting the site.
