DESIREE quote:

"Cool work, Bianca.  Beyond the mythological importance of the Pillars, they are also really picturesque looking.  Have you ever come across any pictures of Gibraltar?"



I have seen Gibraltar myself, Desiree.  I sailed through the Strait myself in 1951.
Here's a picture of the ship (the SATURNIA) I was on, as it is passing in front of the Rock of Gibraltar.

I was 13 years old and I thought it was awesome.  I was aware of the legend of Hercules and the first
voyage of Columbus.  It was in the daytime and I looked at the vastness of the Atlantic Ocean and felt
really sorry for him and his crew braving it and sailing into that 'unknown'....even if he did not go by this
spot, the Atlantic looked so forbidding!

Jebel Musa (Arabic: جبل موسى) is the name given to a mountain located in the northernmost part of Morocco on the African side of the Straits of Gibraltar.

Together with the Rock of Gibraltar to the north, it is known as one of the Pillars of Hercules (although this title is also claimed by Monte Hacho in the Spanish exclave of Ceuta, some kilometres to the west of the mountain). It is 851 m (2,790 ft) high.
