Queen's Hotel Gibraltar

... half way up, make sure you&#8217;ve bought tickets at the bottom! <br><br>The Barbary Apes are a lot of fun though. There are the mischievous ones trying to steal cameras and sneak inside the cars and minibuses, and then there are the real sedate ones that just chill and will let you come up and sit with them. Didn&#8217;t try to pet any of them though in case they decided to bite. We also ...

... and they will bite and scratch as one German lady soon discovered. I´ll bet she now wishes she had saved the candy for herself and not the apes. I can´t imagine licorice is good for them anyway. They also like bling believe it or not and are attracted to bright bracelets and necklaces. <br><br>I happened upon a museum for a system of tunnels inside the Rock of Gibraltar started in the 1700s and lengthened during WWII to protect the area. I took a tour ...

... zone. My goal, since seeing the Apes was already out of the schedule, was to figure out how to walk to the Moorish Castle. I consulted my map several times, but it seemed to only point me in the direction of Duty-Free shopping. I went the wrong way and found myself on Main Street, which was a narrow pedestrian street lined with shops and shops and more shops. Would you like some confections? A bogus leather Harley Davidson jacket? Maybe ...

... out and 'mixed' with the Barbary Apes. We had to be careful, because they will steal jewelery or go through handbags and you can't catch them if they take anything. They are still pretty cute and there were some really tiny ones and some rather large ugly ones. We got back in the taxi again for a further ride up the hill and were let out at the really old tunnels which were carved out during the Spanish Wars so many years ago and then carved out ...

... were really expensive too, 60 for a beer and 70 for a smirnoff ice. There was a man dressed up as a cow on the dance floor trying to get eople to dance and the music wasnt too bad. There were some weird people in there though, one guy who was two fut tall but in proportion for a 30 year old man and he was being carried around by some other guy! We had a good night, and decided to head back at 4am. The door of the hotel was locked but claire banged on it and the ...

... One of the best conversations was with a guy who I had just watched kill about 50 chickens. This guy was a poultry killin machine. Kelly and I also had a few of the local crazies adopt us. One of them was this frail old man, who would always find us as soon as we would come out of our hotel. He then would follow us around pointing at things and explaining them in Arabic. It was like he was our crazy tour guide. He was kind of cute actually, in a really senile/crazy ...

... streets. Asking again for help - one guy got excited until we told him we had a reservation, so he pointed us in the direction and we finally found our place. We had actually reserved ahead, unusual for us, as we didn't want to be wandering around searching for accommodation in the evening, in a port city like Tanjier. We checked out our room - a little basic inside, but upon opening the window - we had an amazing view over the port of Tanjier - really beautiful to watch ...

morocco has the nicest, most helpful people. i'm in tangier killing some time before my overnight train ride to marrakech. i met a guy at the train station who told me that the old town is pretty much shut down because friday is the holy day of the week. but new town has a lot open, such as this internet cafe, which is good ...

It was a very full day yesterday. I managed to find the Palais Juan Hotel and discovered the Ravi Shankar film was to be shown at 10 a.m. I quickly went to the train station to buy our train tickets back to Tangier, went back to our hotel to get Yoong and we arrived just as the film was being introduced. It was an excellent documentary, in English, with plenty of samples of superb sitar music. The director was ...
