Twelve-years ago today. Semester at Sea Spring 2013 Enrichment Voyage.

My father and I spent the day on a field trip to Gibraltar. We took bus to the summit of the Rock of Gibraltar. Our guide cautioned everyone to keep their pockets and daypacks securely closed and to avoid exposing any food, as the wild monkeys can be highly aggressive. Numerous monkeys (Barbary macaques) were encountered along the way and upon reaching the visitor center at the summit.
