The Rock of Gibraltar

While in Spain, we took a day trip to the UK's Rock of Gibraltar. Very fun place, especially the collision of British and Spanish cultures creating a unique vibe.
The rock. A very british looking phone booth.

We grabbed lunch at the oldest bar in town. Pretty phenomenal fish & chips.

These are the famed apes of Gibraltar. I know they look like monkeys, but they are in fact apes. Cute, yes, but we did in fact see one very cute ape attack an unsuspecting tourist. I definitely remember a few sideways looks I got from them which made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.


A couple shots of St. Michael's Cave in very low light.

Amazing Tea and scones after exploring the rock. Really amazing scones.

Looking down on the main square from atop a Moorish castle; the castle.

A cool cathedral we found on our walk through town.

The silhouette is our first live view of Africa.
