Interior from the Grandmaster's Palace in Valletta (officially known as The Palace), which once housed the Grandmaster of the Order of St. John, and now is the home for the Maltese President (well, not literally, the official residence for the president is outside of Valletta).
The construction of the palace begun in 1574, but the place saw substantial renovation work when Manuel Pinto da Fonseca became Gransmaster in 1741 - and the current look of the palace owes much to him.
(Taken through a door I wasn't actually allowed through. But I could at least look!)

I tried to do some researching, but I couldn't figure out what kind of flowers these are. If you should know, please feel free to comment. I would appreciate it! I know they must be something fairly common, perhaps geraniums, but I'm not positive.
These were photographed right out of our own garden. I think they were some that just came up from last year's plantings, but I'm not sure. Hope you all enjoy!
