Plunging into St Peter’s Pool

Another favorite anchorage was near St Peters Pool on the south part of Malta. Large slabs of smooth rock make an ideal place for the young and beautiful to spend the afternoon. All are dared to jump off the 15 foot cliff into the cobalt blue sea below. But none do it better than Peppi and his loyal dog. An older guy with a deep tan potbellied body, and heavy gold chain around his neck. He doesn’t hesitate to casually walk to the rim to dive with grace off the high cliff into the pool. But equally fearless is his pint size terrier who in sync with his owner also plunges to the depths below. If they ever have an Olympic event of synchronized dog/man diving, Peppi and his dog have a running chance to accumulate more gold for around his neck.
