Day 13 of our adventure found us in Gibraltar. Our magnet features Gibraltar's most prominent feature, the rock....with, of course, Mickey Mouse doing a little rock climbing! :)
We were excited to be in Gibraltar because we'd been here once before on our last TransAtlantic Cruise and really enjoyed it. The views from the top of the rock are amazing and the world famous Barbary Apes live all over the top of the rock and the roads in the area. They are a small species of apes that have lived here for a very long time and, while not domesticated, are relatively used to humans and so, as long as you don't try to touch or annoy or FEED them....they are cute to look at and take pictures of!
So the plan for the day was to meet our excursion group on the ship and then we would be escorted off the ship to the cable car station, ride a cable car up the rock to the top, spend a little time taking photos, touring the area, watching the apes and then head back to the ship for lunch and to enjoy the rest of the day in the sun. We had planned on not doing too much more than that to continue the theme of relaxation for this leg of our journey......
