GIBRALTAR FORTNIGHT





Gibralter fortnight has been great fun. Busy with safety and communications checks. Lots of partying and socialising. Climbed the rock to see the apes. Also visited the deep caves which involved rope work and abseiling. Weekend sail to Smir in Morocco to visit Souk and watched rugby world cup final in Africa. Visited white town of Ronda with its bull ring. Evening reception with Governor General of Gibralter. We set sail for Lanzarote on Sunday 28th, Oct. with a Naval escort and gun salute from Royal Gibralter Regiment. This passage should take about 5 days.
