A Day in Gibralter

Today was a busy one.   We got up and went to Gibralter.  It was really a good time.   We parked the car in Spain and walked over the border and onto Gibralter. It really is a rock.  There are thousands of British people living there and at the top of the rock a colony of monkeys are living.   They roam the place free.   We took the cable car up to see them, came back down, visited the main street and had lunch.  Headed back late afternoon.  When we got back to the car, oh, oh, a parking ticket.   We had not gotten the right permit to park.   We took care of that and headed to Tarifa.   Got here, found a little pension and checked out the ferry to Tangiers.  We will go there - Africa - tomorrow, just for the day.  Tarifa is a pretty cool little town.  We walked around old town and found a place to eat and then headed back to our home away from home to sleep.  We leave at 8:00 in the morning.
