[@alasdairvincent6248]

I’ve never been to Gibraltar, it looks like a great place to go to. Some of the views look stunning. I loved the monkeys, they are so human like. I could watch them for ages. It’s great to see you and the kids having a great time and making more memories together. It would terrify me walking over the suspension bridge, well done for crossing it. I’m looking forward to following you on the rest of your journey. Take care.

[@TheRollingRucks]

Thank you so much 😊 xx

[@briansimpson2924]

Hi all, having watched the video of your time on Gibraltar we decided to visit ourselves from our bolt hole in Nerja. Thanks for including the drive around the rock and through the tunnel which we did not know about. We weren't able to go quite as high as you because we're both the wrong side of 70 yrs. Enjoy the rest of your trip and wish you luck in selling the van but hope you continue your adventures which we find entertaining and informative. Kind regards Laurie and Brian

[@TheRollingRucks]

Ahhh so happy you both went to visit! Did you enjoy it? Well done for attempting the rock it is very steep in places. Appreciate you supporting us hapoy travels xx

[@lynnehuyton1237]

Those monkeys are so cute, what an adventure you're on xx

[@TheRollingRucks]

Thank you very cute they can get a bit scrappy though xx

[@ianemery7785]

A sincere thank you for showing us so much of Gibraltar that would never been seen by anyone like myself with some limits on mobility. We intend to visit Gibraltar this summer but would not be able to trek where you did. Just about every other video made by motorhomers simply show the main streets, maybe a few pics of government house and the apes so, once again, thank you. You might guess I really enjoyed watching this👍

[@TheRollingRucks]

That actually means a lot to us Ian to hear you enjoyed watching so much thank you xx

Ahh that’s great news hope the sun shines on your visit xx

[@BusyElf]

I've never been to Gibraltar. so this was a real eye-opener for me. So much to see on a Rock. and the views were amazing. Not sure if I could have coped with the bridge either would might have given it go, even at my age. It looks an amazing place to see. Thanks Rucks , Keep it up and I always look forward to the next part of your journey.

[@TheRollingRucks]

Thank you we were surprised too. There was also a cave to explore but we didn’t do that as the children were tired but fab! Xx

[@justbeingkal2837]

The last time I was in Gibraltar we went to get on the cable car I froze with fear and decided I couldn’t get on but didn’t want the family to miss out so I went and sat with a view of the cable cars to watch them go up…. The cable car had a power cut 3/4’s of the way up and I sat hysterical thinking I’d never see them again 🤣 it was possibly the worst ten minutes of my life until the cable car started moving again.

[@TheRollingRucks]

Ahh bless you that must have been so frightening no wonder you don’t like them x

[@mournefulmaniac01]

I visited Gibraltar a number of during my time in the Royal Navy and my dad was actually posted to Devils Gap Battery during his National Service in the 50's. Both have happy memories of our time there.

[@TheRollingRucks]

That’s so lush to hear glad you enjoyed the video xx

[@viv-i-vangoesforth]

you astonished me again how big Gibraltar is! So many interesting places to visit-though with my wonky spine it would deffo have to be the cable car up. great video again and Gibraltar tourist board would love it. Bessy regs-Kenny

[@TheRollingRucks]

It’s huge isn’t it! Well for a rock I mean haha, so pleased you enjoyed it xx

[@kat7777]

My god.. There is no way I would walk up there!! I can't stand heights and huge drops..... 🤯 🙀

[@TheRollingRucks]

It was really high xx

[@DJRogEurotour]

Thanks for showing me what I missed in Gibraltar. The day after your visit the weather was awful so I just did some shopping in Morrisons had a quick drive around & left. Love your video’s and the humour.

[@TheRollingRucks]

That’s so annoying with the weather sorry to hear you missed out. Hopefully be able to return on our way back with some sunshine ☀️

[@GoodnightIrene]

Good watch and brings back memories from our visit there about 8 yrs ago. Definitely with you on the scared height worries as it also getting worse for me as I get older ! 😂

[@SuperFredc]

I have to say, apart from the van build vids, this has been your most captivating yet. Although having said that, they all are very captivating. So much info. Great to be able to pause and read the plaques, as some people wont be able to experience that. I don't have children (lucky me) but if I did, I would love to do what you are doing. The travel and memories, education and experience of different cultures cannot be found in the classroom. I am already looking at flights to Gibraltar lol. You are lovely people. Wishing you all the best.

[@vanscran1672]

I was there in the eighties when they were making a James Bond film so couldn't see the monkeys, I'd be interested to see how you get on taking a van through the narrow streets, it's a pity you can't stay in your van a few days anyway. 🤔🤔🤔😁😄😁

Gosh walking around the track beside the bridge was bad enough let alone doing the bridge!

Probably the best way to go up the rock. We taxied and cable car’d to the top and didn’t see all the sites you did. Looked a really easy walk from our settee!! 😆 Good experience for the kids as well 👍

Thank you tiring though but worth stopping at each bit xx

[@TheRollingRucks]

Defo recommend although taxi may be better was shattered for most lol 😂 well done on cable car xx

[@Twinklesnana]

I’ve been up there in the cable car ( that’s a steep walk) which was fine but the apes are nasty! A guy next to me was full on attacked and bitten as they wanted his back pack they look cute but I wouldn’t go near them again after witnessing the attack, certainly wouldn’t have food in a back pack . They even got on top of the cable car to try to get in it was proper scary… Babies are sweet though … love Gibraltar it’s quirky with Red telephone boxes and British stores ..you can do cruises and dolphins follow the boat too

[@TheRollingRucks]

Oh my gosh that’s awful and yes very high up xx

Not sure if I would have been comfortable crossing that bridge. Great to see you conquering your fears. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your trip. We’ve done the coastal route round Spain and Portugal, some great sight’s have fun. It’s probably on your itinerary anyway but tif it’s not- the south west corner of Portugal is the most southerly point of Europe. Not much there apart from a lighthouse but you can get a sticker to say you’ve been there!!

[@TheRollingRucks]

Thank you 😊 spain has been lovely looking forward to portugal now xx

[@LeisureBit]

We have never been to Gibraltar but it looks fabulous! I can’t do heights either 🤣🤣 When I was young our local pet shop had a monkey and I always wanted one so if one stows away with you give me a shout! 🤣 Rachel, David & Roxy ❤

Ha ha brilliant re monkeys! Too high mun xx

[@ryangibson4226]

Brilliant video. It looks as though you guys have settled into the travelling nicely. The van is holding up well too! Would love to know more about your medium to long-term plans. How do you plan to finance the travelling and whether you are looking to stay somewhere longer once you reach the Sun (i.e: Portugal). It's really commendable to do such a thing with three children but they seem to be enjoying it immensely. Thank you

[@TheRollingRucks]

Hi Ryan, we don’t plan too far ahead recipe for disaster.. we are enjoying the travel at the moment when we don’t anymore we shall go back to normal life but then again who knows.. x

[@aceairstream]

Watching this in the marina Aire planning my 2nd day in Gib- your video was so helpful, especially as I’m not keen on heights either, and with strong winds forecast for Friday, (and judging from gusts outside, here already,) I may decide you have done the virtual exploring for me! I did enjoy the airport action and saw an EasyJet A320 take off and a BA A320 land on the very challenging 09 circling approach, video on my channel. Might take advantage of those fuel prices too! I’ve just come from west and Portugal, can recommend Cadiz and Jerez, also Muelle de las Carabelas near Huelva, a super little museum and MH park up with replicas of Columbus’ three ships- it was from here he set off in 1492 to ‘sail the ocean blue’, so great educational visit for the children. Great parkup next to Faro airport runway if you want some more aviation action!

[@TheRollingRucks]

Thank you for sharing your tips for us may check that out ;-) glad to hear the video was helpful and it’s such a shame about the weather there this week too xx

[@claudieschmidt2353]

Well, that bridge made my stomach go up and my legs went weak just watching them cross it! I DO NOT like heights, not even watching people doing high things. I wonder if they have problems with the monkeys getting on the cable wires...maybe they are electrified? Safe travels....Claudie
