Here are pictures of the Mezquita, a very old Moorish castle, made a cathedral later on by the Christians. This is the Bell Tower, and the bells, as you very well know, were and still are rung to let you know what time it is.

The next picture is of the courtyard fountain, a very old, yet still remodeled by the Moorish, fountain indeed.

Since I do not know which picture will come first,

I will tell you that the picture with the paintings

and offering booth is an old Christian, well, offering booth.

The other picture is of old original Muslim arches.

Now for the last two photos. One is of fancier Muslim arches, the other, a statue of pure gold! The doors to the place were also made of gold!

Just a few donkeys, one with it's head through our window!

Donkeys, I discovered, are sweet, sensitive, and stubborn!

Here's a cute little baby Barbary Ape  from Gibraltar, a town owned by the Brits who won it from the Spanish awhile ago. The rock of Gibraltar is a very historic place. There have been wars, sieges, and many other things, too. The Rock is very old itself. It is currently 70,000,000 years old.

My monkey and me!

Here are dad and I, hiking in Tarifa.

Behind us is a cave, fixed up by climbers before.

Isn't that circle in the rock above us cool?We went a little further back, and found a cool, freshwater mountain lake.

Hola!

This is an old river gorge. The bridge we are standing on is called New Bridge, and it is located in Ronda.

We went on a vacation to a town called Sella. Here is a picture of their cathedral.In Sella, they use a kind of agriculture called terraces. Terraces are when you build walls, one below the next, and  grow plants on each wall.The next picture is of me on a mountain called "La Divina". We hiked up it on a goat trail. It's one of the highest mountains around Sella.

We found two viper snakes when we were out climbing. I nearly stepped on one!Here, dad has taken a picture of an English-speaking German woman we met. She is, of course climbing! I will tune in after Christmas, to tell you about Tarifa, where we will be spending Christmas at the beach!

 Hola!

This pic is of me jumping in a pool that was a little below 30 degrees!I was pretty cold, but I managed to swim the "butterfly"across the pool, TWICE!

The other picture is of me walking down Arab Stairs in El Chorro. They were made 900 years ago!! They lead up to a pass in the mountains.

ADIOS!
