Random Spain-ness Part 3

We toured the Rock of Gilbratar and saw these interesting Apes...ah, that would be the one on the left of the photo... ;-) The caves of St Michaels on the island of Gibraltar were a complete and wonderful surprise. Stalagtites (sp?) are a wonder of nature.

This marble marker just cracked me up...there is also another one stating that they stood on a spot and "made friends with the apes".

COMPLETE subject switch: we wandered into a graveyard one day on our travels and had an interesting side tour. They bury their dead in above ground, three-high vaults. Some of this were beautifully decorated like the one below.
