Gibraltar, U.K. - Part 3
There's a very old, rickety, gondola ride which takes you to the top of The Rock. There are spectacular views of the town below and you can see Morocco across the sea. Then there are the famous wild apes who inhabit The Rock. They can be very aggressive. I saw one approach an unsuspecting tourist lady from the Ukraine. The ape (monkey) snatched some junk food right out of the satchel she was carrying. She was horrified and screamed, but everyone else thought it was funny. The ape then went out on a scary ledge and ate the Ukrainian version of a Twinkie.

Tommy, Tommy...Just found out about your blog from Jane Roush. I can't believe you are doing what so many of us dream of...traveling willy nilly. Every monday I thought of you while I traveled to the Midway, and low and behold, you weren't there! I shall follow your exploits with great interest. I will be in Holland in November and on a German river cruise the end of Nov/Dec. Perhaps we can hook up. Kathryn Hartman (Starbird)
