Picton Castle at anchor in Gibraltar
morning skiff run
huge crane brought in a ship that had sunk
interesting name for a ship
entrance to the city
feels like Britain
cute little barque in the harbor... yes those are windmills behind the oil refinery
the side of the rock is covered with gun placements and other fortification
Kevin with the Picton Castle behind
nearly everywhere you look
there are signs of the past
view of the airport and Spain beyond
the main road goes right over the runway
tunnel used during WW II
remains of a Moorish castle from the 700's
Christmas is coming
Trafalgar Cemetery
and there are lots of Barbary Macaques commonly known as “apes”
Ape with the Picton Castle behind
view from the top... can you spot our little barque?
cable car makes it easy to get to the top
around 800 steps make up this defensive wall
looking east from the top... 28 ships waiting for orders
sunset on the rock
Kevin finds his first geocache
not a bad location for a cache
The Straight of Gibraltar at Sunset
time to wash the sheets
... and the bunks
100 ton gun
never actually fired in anger
got replaced with this during WW II
tunnel through the rock
mosque on Europa Point
hmmmm. i think this ship shouldn't be here
there's the other half
lighthouse at Europa point...
one of the “Pillars of Hercules”
sunrise at anchor in Gibraltar
checking and maintenance on immersion suits
Kolin under the knife... I think it was a pimple.
