Rocks, lizards, and legends

Abstract

One of my most eccentric desires is to visit Fungus Rock, near our sister island of Gozo. I tried to visit the place a number of times, but due to unforeseen circumstances and some unwanted luggage, I never made it. This profound desire to visit the place has its roots and stems resulting from two reasons: to observe the Malta fungus (which incidentally is a flowering plant!) and the 'race' of the Maltese lizard which only inhabits that relatively small rock, and naturally; to photograph both of them. l have promised myself to do it, and hopefully will do it. (indeed, I need to get permission from the environment secretariat to visit the islet).
