Wednesday 19th May Gibraltar




Didn’t get to the disco last night after all, as we discovered that a ventriloquist was performing in the Vista Lounge, and how could we possibly bear to miss that!

We’ve been in Gibraltar today, and as I type this we are sailing through the Straits, dolphins all around the ship, and Morocco tantalisingly close by. We had breakfast together again this morning and then all went shopping. The two Js went in lots of jewellery shops before Julie managed to find a beautiful gold bracelet. The Daves were very patient and fully deserved the pint of beer we treated them to at the end of the morning. We walked as far as the Trafalgar Cemetery, hoping to see the graves of those whose died in the battle, but it was surrounded by roadworks and the gates were padlocked, so our long walk was in vain.

It’s been a very hot day. We bought newspapers in town and were thrilled to see that England is also basking in glorious sunshine.
