We woke up to blue skies and people messing about on their boats.
After catching a bus to the south, we walked up Engineer Road to the other end of the Nature Reserve on 'the Rock'.
Half way up we stopped for a few minutes to enjoy a good view of Europa Point, the southernmost tip of Gibraltar.
From there we hiked up a steep and rocky path which was lined with wild flowers and full of lovely spring scents.
Our destination was St Michael's Cave which is supposed to be the best in Europe. We would not disagree. The formations are magnificent.
Where a stalactite had fallen many years ago a slice has been taken and polished to show the growth rings, similar to those of a tree.
As we returned to town, an ape decided to accompany us for part of the journey.
Further on we came across this mother and baby.
