SPAIN - Day 3 Trip to Gibralter

 Light rain on this day so we decided to drive to Gibralter. This also is a nightmare to park & drive in . Scooter, Motorcycles, & small cars everywhere.Went window shopping on thier Main Street & took pictures of their different buildings and fortifications.

SPAIN - Day 2 in Ronda

Got up the next morning and took a drive to Ronda. This town is in the mountains above where we are staying. It has the oldest bullring & only one with 2 levels. It sets on top of a hill with a deep gorge separating the town by three very old bridges, dating as far back as the 9th century. The roads are very narrow & parking is impossible. Took a ton of pictures here,it was so interesting & beautiful.

Next stop - SPAIN - Day 1

Got to Spain with no problems, except for a headache from Oktoberfest. Decided to check out the condo then go down to the marina and see how the locals live. WOW!!

Final episode of Oktoberfest

The first picture is a classic. This will be Rick and Alison in 10 years, sharing a 1/2 meter bratwurst at Oktoberfest! But we know Alison will still be looking at guys in their lederhosens!

Oktoberfest continues

Couldn't get a live model for the first picture, so we found something as a substitute. Rick rather enjoyed looking at that picture quite often.
The little walkup bars were very plentiful throughtout the Oktoberfest. We thought they were a good idea, since you could hardly find sitting room in any of the tents.
The last picture was taken in a special area for the 200 year anniversary 1810-2010. It says Welcome to Oktoberfest.

This is the Fun Zone

Tent #2-same day more beer

As you can see, these are more pictures of another tent and seeing some of the crazy people dancing on tables. This is a Monday afternoon and all these people. Doesn't anyone work during Oktoberfest?
