We love to cruise and this will show our travels. Of course there will also be other photos of non cruise holidays and anything else that takes my fancy.

Wordless Wednesday - Gibraltar.
Originally built in 1531 as a convent, then from 1728 has been the official residence of the Governor of Gibraltar.

What an incredible building. And believe me after this winter I definitely noticed the pink flowers but the top over the Portico. And the other flowers that look so tropical. We thought winner was ending here but once we get through a terrible storm today we're actually going to be below freezing again day and night, yuck and yuck.
those gardens and the foliage are awesome…… Im guessing the flowers in the top photo on the ledge are accessed by a door behind them ( looks like a window, which would make it hard to care for them ).
Terrific photos! WOW, that's some fancy house! Big hugs from all of us.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely place, thank you for taking us there for a few moments.
ReplyDeleteI like your trips. And the photos are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jackie! Happy WW and a fine week!❤️๐
Ooh, do they do tours inside the home, public-facing areas? Or is it entirely private? And what a view you had when departing! Wow!
