You can see the African Continent dimly behind me.

According to a signboard, here is only one living place of monkey in Europe.
The monkey I saw was alike to Japanese monkey.

First, I visited the MarinaBay Gibraltar.
It was just like a resort with the fancy stores standing in a row side by side.
3 days later, I moved to the Shephard Marina to repair the boat.
To change completely, there were repairing factories standing by pier.
The most interesting thing is that there are two Marinas close and each Marina is characteristic.
It shows that the transportation of ship is rooted in their life.
