The Giordan, Ġordan or Ta' Ġurdan Lighthouse is an active lighthouse on the Maltese island of Gozo. It is located on a hill above the village of Għasri on the northern coast of the island. An earlier lighthouse was known to exist at the site from around 1650, although there are no other specific details. A semaphore station was installed on the light in the 1840s. The current light began operation in 1853, and was built during the period when the islands were part of the British Empire.
During World War II, the lighthouse was used as the location for an early warning radar station. The radar would provide information about bombers coming south from Italy, allowing air raid sirens to be activated prior to the raids. Due to its hill top location it has a considerable focal height of 180m above the sea, and can be seen for 20 nautical miles, and consists of a flashing white light every 7.5 seconds.
i couldn't resist putting this red (former apron) tie around dex, as he was so insistent on playing with it. red looks good on him...
of course, it didn't stay on him for long; too much risk of him getting choked by it.
