We arrived in Rabat on Sunday March 17th and it was obvious that they were having a special celebration
March 17th is St Patrick's Day but this celebration was for the Feast of St Joseph on March 19th
The Catacomb of St Paul is the most well known but there are others as well which were developed from the 3rd to 6th centuries and include tombs for more than 1000 bodies
Church of St Paul
While I couldn't identify St Paul's island in the distance landscape from the wall of Mdina, Rabat does have "St Paul's Grotto" where he is pointing to the location of his shipwreck
While hiding in Malta, St Paul met Publius, a wealthy Roman, whom he converted to Christianity. There is a church of St Publius in Valletta
	While there is no evidence that these Roman Ruins were the home of Publius, this home on the border of Rabat is indicative of how a wealthy Roman would have lived
