Gibraltar - view - Krista photo
1. English red telephone boxes under palm trees
2. They clearly use all means available to let you know that you are in fact in Great Britain (it is partly a tourism strategy) – British mailboxes, fish&chips, Bobbies
2. The only free-roaming monkeys in Europe
3. Magnificent panorama from the glass floor viewpoint (Skywalk)
4. Locals are mostly friendly
5. Walking on an ordinary public road and crossing an airstrip (the shortest in Europe besides another very short one in Madeira)
6. England with sunshine and without fog
7. Skipping the climbing and taking the cable car instead, finding a free (and free of charge!) parking space right at the station
8. Watching the enormous port and its substantial traffic
9. Ocean Village, Main Street – the only really charming places in Gibraltar
1. Climbing up in the summer heat
2. British prices (which you really notice coming from much cheaper Spain)
3. The nasty, aggressive behavior, threatening growl and size of the monkeys
4. The
local English accent frustrated us
5. The city itself is not particularly attractive, close-built
6. We were hoping to be able to catch a glimpse of the coast of Africa but were disappointed – we couldn’t see it even when the weather was clear
7. The cable car ticket is expensive
8. The Skywalk’s size was somewhat disappointing
9. The stupid tourists who feed the monkeys despite the ban
