This was our first stop after crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Gibraltar was never high up on our list of places we wanted to see, but we’re so glad we did!

It’s a tiny city on a hill right at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. Although on the map it looks like part of Spain, it has always been a British territory. The few people we met while we were here are proud to be Brits and say it will always stay that way.

We took a tour of the Great Siege Tunnels dating back to the 1780’s when France and Spain tried to take the territory from the British.

After that we took a cable car to the Top of the Rock for what should have been amazing views … if not for the fog! We did get to see the famous macaques monkey’s.

Then into town on our own for some authentic British Fish and Chips! (And NO, we did NOT eat at Taco Bell! … but we had to get a picture.)
