We climbed the rock today. OK, by climbed I mean paid 15 pounds sterling to ride a cable car to the top. We did walk down though, which no one else did. From this perspective, Gibraltar feels like a mini-Hong Kong with the hills shadowing the high rise buildings that are built on reclaimed land in a British territory (or former British territory as the case may be).
The Rock of Gibraltar. There are 30 miles of tunnels dug out inside the rock for long past defense purposes.
Can there be an English territory without a pub named The Angry Friar? Definitely not!
We were lucky enough to witness the operation of one of the most bizarre airports in the world. Below is the picture of a plane taking off. Notice that traffic in and out of Gibraltar is completely stopped for this event.
