was not as sharp as expected the tour of the palace gardens. By failing to introduce ourselves as tourists in season peak, we caught the sweepers and cleaners in their work. However, we could take decent pictures in the corners where they were not working.
The trip opened our appetite at all, so we entered the restaurant disguised the Jardines del Principe.
Restaurante El Castillo 1806
To recreate the ride prefer to go across the river Tagus by a temporary bridge, which devoid of artistic beauty, showing a sign at its entrance intriguing
For safety, maximum 10 people at a time. THANKS
As we were only four people would not notice us and we liked to cross the Tagus, with the prospect it offered. The bridge was high, to allow passage of boats are rented right there, walking the serpentine route navigable.
A few years later, the tragic news of the death of eight tourists by drowning in the River Tagus to give this gateway, we assume that possibly go in large groups, pensioners, or missed reading the notice, or coincided with another group on the other side.

More spectacular images.
Seeking invest minimal time for the tour drawn, two days later we are faced with the barrier Gibraltar. We wanted the children to play with monkeys endemic there.
are a unique breed, mixed with tourists, with the intention of stealing food. Walk around the perimeter of the Rock. And we imagined into conversation with the natives, who speak English very sui generis. Most like the skullduggery of English words, phrases of Andalusian accent. However
our arrival was not timely.

Among what were the National House to visit and what proved to be the sale, in Seville province, the difference was noticeable. Luxury-quality, affordable price, the first, resulted in the sale that we needed to stay overnight in Nauseabundez vulgarity, and .... So yes: Price trap.
I decided to stay overnight for two reasons. There were many miles from Aranjuez and children after exhausting entertainment with Tere, fell asleep.
And another reason was that I did not find hotels along the way, instead announcing a sale. Remembered as Don Quixote de la Mancha, sometimes mentioned in the Sales and Messrs innkeeper. I determined to know what type of hotel establishment was this that lavished Andalusia.
Dinner mediocre, but as we were asleep, did not matter. Breakfast ... .. or whatever. Compartments separated by walls whitewashed, (all the walls were whitened with lime) to two meters high. Roof, four meters. Overhead light shining through the night to all compartments.
What should have been sleeping, was on the bunks, cornered by what is called Poyo. That is the base of the wall reinforced with a foot width, height up to seventy. Served to "support" clothing, furniture, or what the traveler considered better than the soil deposit.
Devoid of furniture, which itself gave us were the sheets and pillow cases, at least clean and disinfected. As I say
disinfected since we entered the subterranean cavern, covering the entire surface under the dining room, we smelled the strong aroma of Zotal. Tere
I noticed, while for children, it was a funny experience.
-Carlos, here can not sleep. Offensive smell and do not see how turning off the light.
"I'm afraid that the light is off and either in day or night. Note that there are no windows. "I observed.
- Dad, the toilets are upstairs, next to the kitchen. "Said JC
- Did you see?. In times of the adventures of Don Quixote, this should be a pigsty.
But at least the toilets have running water. Well, tomorrow is another day, try to relax.
What they say luck, this time we do not. Sales subsequently read today, are cheaper, but no shortage of amenities. And they usually have a select cuisine delicacies in the area. Yes, always daily menu.
This sale therefore was not in such a scheme.
Leaving early morning, we saw the reason for the disinfection Zotal. Had to be careful not to step on the hundreds of beetles that were awaiting burial.
Had seen it at night when we arrived, certainly not dinner.
trying to forget the adventure, I stepped on the accelerator to reach the barrier of Gibraltar before noon. I encouraged my children to the promised contact with the monkeys running wild there.
Gibraltar macaques
Entrance to the isthmus connecting the Rock, on the border with Spain.
the barrier was closed by the police. Without explanation, ordered them to take us around.
Vista frustration, suggested Teresa Matilde see who lived in La Linea de la Concepcion, a town bordering Gibraltar.
had very good memories of it, as though the past three years, were letters. Matilde
proved to be an overprotective mother of his son who touched his military service in Barcelona. At that time, military service lasted two years. With only six months to graduate missing fell ill, and he was admitted to the Hospital Military.
Matilde, could not sleep thinking of her son, so decided to stay in Barcelona to go to him daily. Since I could not afford the luxury of a hotel maid offered in exchange for support, without remuneration.
Tess was doubly grateful because, as found after, was the person (including many that did) that best treated children. Do not give any problem at any time. It was a cook, or companion for the return of children to school. She dedicated her existence to be nice. Everything from daily to visit his son.
Al licensed and restored, Matilde not be dismissed without any pay support. My wife gave to show gratitude the promised splendidly and mail contacts. We take
a last look at Peñasco prohibited and ask for the direction of Matilda, which take great surprise.
