17th June 08 - Gibraltar
A morning stop in Gibraltar. We arrived
at the same time as the newly launched Independence of the Seas - the BIGGEST
cruise liner in the world!
We hired a taxi to take us to all the main spots - great morning in the
sunshine!
|
| From the top of the Rock. Look how tiny the Silver Cloud looks beside the Independence of the Seas! |
|
| From the Rock over the cemetery and airport to Spain |
|
| Easyjet about to take off. The runway crosses the main road from Gibraltar to Spain so they have to stop the traffic! |
|
| One of the local apes admires the view. Legend has it that the British will give up the Rock when the apes leave. |
|
| Ape and baby. They jump on you and your car. One climbed onto the back of a person in our party and peed down his back! |
|
| The very peak of the Rock |
|
| Cannas |
|
| Square in Main Street, Gibraltar |
|
| Very British! |
|
|
| Leaving at lunchtime. Tough Eh? |
