Friday 26th February
In the morning we did some shopping having been tempted by the leather jackets.
After lunch we walked back to the Botanic Gardens and were surprised at the progress that had been made with the pedestrian suspension bridge, particularly as the wind was so strong that our planned ride on the cable car had to be cancelled.
 

The rest of the afternoon was spent in the Gibraltar Museum, which is built on the top of well-preserved 14th century Islamic baths.


This amazing 1/50 scale model of Gibraltar was created in 1857. The room is lined with photographs taken over the last 125 years.

 
The day was rounded off with sheet lightening and strong winds followed by a severe rainstorm.
