Gibralter











Ineresting place about 2 hours south of Rota. Just about 1 mile of UK at the tip of Spain, well at the tip of Europe to be exact!




Funny though how we crossed the border and everything became English and understandable all of a sudden! It was a great day trip though! We got to take a cable car to the top of the rock where you can look out over the water. Also this is the only place in all of Europe that has wilde apes. Oddly enough they walk around up there near the humans quite comfortably.
We were warned to not have food out, or plstic. The apes have learned that there is usaly food inside plastic. There were a few people who didnt listen and it made for good entertainment for us! It was just amazing to get that close to the monkeys and the kids had a great time just watching them and thier interactions with eachother. In particular they liked watching the baby monkey!
If this rock looks familiar to you...its the rock that the prudential insurance company uses as thier logo.
