My family is coming into town in a few weeks and we’re all going to go skiing together as a family. I’ve been looking through all the various websites on the Internet to find the best Mt Ruapehu accommodation for us all. The one thing the literature on the net can’t tell you is how comfortable the beds are because that’s such a personal thing. But, my father is a very picky individual and I want to find something he’ll like.

The Malta Hypogeum – which is the Greek word for “Underground” – was first found in 1902 by accident, when a stone mason broke through the roof while laying housing foundations. Here there was discovered a lost world – halls and chambers carved out of the rock, and housing carvings, beads, pottery and human bones. There are three levels, the oldest dating back as far as 3000BC. The site has such an allure than many myths have been created about it. Visitors to Malta hotels can enter the Hypogeum, but only 80 a day are permitted, to preserve this UNESCO World Heritage site.
