Sunset over the rock, as seen from Marbella.
This could be any British High Street.

Cream Teas and Tapas.

It could be any British High Street, with two exceptions... the prices and the climate. Shopping here is tax free, good bargains can be acquired in goods such as Alcohol, Tabacco, Jewelry and Cameras. Where else could you enjoy the the surreal experience of British life in the Mediteranean.
The rock seen from the border.

The Rock

The main feature of Gibraltar is its impressive rock, rising 1,400 feet (430 m) out of the sea and 2 miles (3.2 Km) long. It is one half of the 'Pillars of Hercules' from mythology, the Atlas mountains of Morroco across the straights being the other half. It is riddled with natural caves and man man tunnels. Historically it was a good base, controlling the entrance from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic ocean.

 Although I found your comment to be of definite benefit to me as I’m thinking of having a day trip to Gib from Spain, you mention about avoiding rush hour times, would that be English rush hours 7am-10am / 3pm-7pm or Gib rush hour? lol John from UK
