Fondest memory: For the spanish gouvernment it is absolutely clear, that Gibraltar should belong to Spain - But they completely forget, that...
...SPAIN itself has taken 2 small pieces of land of MAROCCO :MELILLA and CEUTA
...but that is something completely different of course ...

Favorite thing: Great quaity of this pic, right? ;-) It's because of the rain and fog. I was in Gibraltar in October, on my way from Portugal to Morocco. The weather on both of these countries was very good but on Gibraltar it was raining all the time. Seems that even weather there is British ;-)

Favorite thing: Gibraltar is so small that you can see the whole place within one day, or even less. But take your time to enjoy this old English crowncolony that today is a great mix of Spansih and English culture - what a mix of very opposite cultures!
Fondest memory: Both times; playing with the rude monkeys!!! They are cute, they are rude, and you just got to love them even when they climb all over you to get the last peanut our of your bag;)!

Favorite thing: The first thing to see in Gibraltar is the rock.When you first see the Rock of Gibraltar, it is its impressive stature, towering isolated above the surrounding countryside, that causes the greatest impact. It is a narrow peninsula linked to the end of the Iberian Peninsula by a narrow sandy isthmus.
irst thing to do in Gibraltar is visit the rock.

Favorite thing: THE ROCK
Gibraltar is a tiny peninsula in the very south point of Europe, in front of Morocco, separated from it by the Straight of Gibraltar.
Dominated by phoenicians, romans, moorish, and spanish, it became british at the beginning of the 18th century by the Treaty of Utrecht.

Favorite thing: Gibraltar belongs to the European Union due to Britain's virtue but it is out of the Customs of the European Union.The travellers can therefore enjoy duty free products there.
The picture was taken from inside the boat.

Fondest memory: Sitting on the Top of the Rock in the sunshine in December.....visiting Gibraltar in December another year and never seeing the Rock all week.....looking at the Rock from a hotel room in Africa.....watching Scottish football live in a backstreet bar.....bouncing on a rickety bus to the end of Europe.....queuing endlessly to cross the border from Spain.....

Favorite thing: Walk up the rock of Gibraltar and converse with the apes. Then visit St. Michaels cave and if possible listen to a concert there.
Europa Point is a great place to visit on a clear day! You can see across to Morocco then.
Fondest memory: My Son was born in Gibralar, so it holds a special place in my heart. When I lived (for two years) in Gib, I enjoyed the friendship of the local ex-pats.
Gib at that time was not open to Spain and therefore it was a different atmosphere.
