Awaiting Your Return From Shore

  Gibraltar is the famous promontory located at the western entrance of the Mediterranean, with Spain to the north and, across the Straits, Morocco to the south. The Straits, a channel 36 miles long that connects the Atlantic with the Mediterranean, are 27 miles wide at the west end, 8 miles at their narrowest. Africa is clearly visible on a fine day. There is an incredible landing strip which bisects the two-mile long, narrow isthmus linking the colony geographically to mainland Spain.
  The British have controlled Gibraltar for over two centuries. A favorite pastime is strolling along Main Street to browse and shop in the many duty-free shops or stop in one of the pubs for a genuine ale, fish and chips, or a steak and kidney pie. Many visitors come to see Gibraltar's curiosity, the Barbary Apes. According to legend, the British will remain as long as the apes survive.
