Ronda twilightRonda twilightRonda twilight

you couldnt actually see the sunset but the light after it had slipped behind the mountains lit the place beautifully,shame most people dont see it
i actually went to Gib first then Ronda, despite the photo order!

Gib was strange, loved walking over the border, which is a runway and going through the tunnels throught the thickest walls you will ever see.

cheap cigs,cheap spirits and loved going up to the top , o haras battery , the caves and the monkeys and the view!

very hot 1500m up and i didnt take enough water and instead drank cuba libres!

loved the trafalgor graveyard, very historical

Ronda is very small and in a stunning setting,most people only visit for the day but it is worth an overnight stay.
had a great tapas bar where i had great little kebabs and watched bull fighting on TV.
