Gibraltar

After the beach to the city and what a city. Gibraltar. Contested for centuries, still British, but located on the Iberian Peninsula.

Parking at the marina is not expensive, water supply is included, and the view of GIB is free.

The "entry" couldn't be easier, even though it no longer belongs to the EU. You walk through a small building, no one really looks and you're out of Spain, you walk through the next small building and suddenly you're in Gibraltar. Actually, you're on the runway of Gibraltar Airport. The road and the sidewalk go straight across it. When it's red, an airplane is coming and you have to wait. ;-)

We stroll through the alleys in the afternoon, many things are like in England, but they drive on the right side and the people of Gibraltar are all bilingual. Spanish and English are both "native languages" and in many conversations they switch back and forth several times, often in one sentence.

On the second day we enter with the motorcycle, we are asked at the border if we have an ID, held it up briefly and we are in.

We drive around the peninsula and then try to reach the ape rock and other sights by moped, but to no avail, everything has been closed to private traffic for several years.

Okay, then a guided tour by minibus. We see St. Michael's Cave, the ape rock and four apes, and we climb the Skywalk and have seen almost everything.

It was great !!!
