We will not be heading to the city center until a little later than originally planned. It will probably be around 2:30/2:45 Spain time (7:30/7:45 am MN time). Follow the link on the previous post.
Day 8 - Gibraltar
Today we left Spain for a little while and entered the United Kingdom. Gibraltar is a city still controlled by the UK. After going through customs to get in, we took a smaller, local bus around the city. Our tour guide, Jeff, was fantastic and everyone loved his British accent. From the end of Gibraltar, you can see a mountain on the Africa side of the Straight of Gibraltar so the kids not only got to visit another country today but also see another continent. We also got to see St. Michael’s Cave and the Gibraltar monkeys. We also got to go through the WW2 era tunnels built in the caves (the rock is still used as a military base). After a slight misunderstanding about how to get out of the caves, we made our way down the hill and had lunch at a traditional British restaurant which means we had fish & chips. We got to shop and explore Gibraltar a little more and then made our way back to our hotel in Fuengirola. Tomorrow is our beach day so we will just spend...
