More photos as promised!



























1. As we pulled in to Gibraltar, Maria and Enrique hopped out of the car for a photo in front of the colossal rock.
2. This is one of the famou Barbary Apes, which are actually tail less monkeys. They have been known to hop into people's cars looking for food so we learned very quickly to shut our doors fast!
3. Off in the distance, you can see Morocco. Amazing that it is so close! There is even a ferry that hauls between Africa and Spain every 45 minutes.
4. This is the view from our balcony room at the Rock Hotel. The upgrade was much appreciated and provided some great views of the sea, port, and of course Africa!
5. In Malaga, the four of us trekked up to the Castillo Gibralfaro which provides 360 degree views of the city.
6. Our hotel in Malaga was a French run guest house. The interior patio had potted plants, flowering vines, and this comfy chair for guests to enjoy.
7. We had to walk the beach! Playa Malaguelta was busy, even on a chilly day. The water was ice cold, but so beautiful!
8. Another view from Castillo. Behind Maria and Enrique, you will see Malaga's Plaza del Toro (bullfighting ring). The bullfights actually begin today, Easter Sunday and are sold out!
