7. Spain & Gibraltar

Gibraltar's sole redeeming feature

Gibraltar looks much better from a distance, sandwiched between trees and sea

Obligatory family shot to prove we came here, no-one need return

The El Tajo Gorge, Ronda

View from the Puente Nuevo down the El Tajo Gorge - not for those with a head for heights

Houses in Ronda's old city, precariously perched above the El Tajo Gorge

A well-earned steak following a poor lunch in Gibraltar

Mountain road leading to Ronda's old city

(Unsuccessful) orange thieves at work

Looking over the Sierra de las Nieves, from one of many viewpoints in Ronda

Spring flowers, now in full bloom

The walk down to the Guadalevin River (and back up) is well worth the view

A glimpse of the Guadalevin River, many fathoms below

We could stay here for weeks and take pictures of this place...

...but eventually we need to leave, our ferry to Algeria is calling...

...not before a final arty door shot

...and a walk down to the Puente Viejo...

...and a walk up through the terraced gardens...

...stopping to smell the roses...

...and taking one final photo of the Puente Nuevo.

En-route to collecting our car, the Ayuntmiento (town hall)

Ronda's city walls, taken in motion. We'll have to return, when we have more time.

A small sample of the 150 square miles of polytunnels that blanket the coast south of Almeria

Almeria's city walls, leading up to the Alcazar

Very windswept, trying to admire the view of Almeria's port - whilst hoping the wind eases off later...
