As mentioned in previous post, in Salamanca, I did a top up of fuel - very wise move as we shall see - and I'm heading south on a few large plateaus and mountains. varied landscape, not at all boring, fortunately, because missing waypoint to the next hour.
More and more I head south the landscape gives way to the Mediterranean Evidently, the sea is not far away.
finally sighted the airport and the city of Seville !
The city is huge and looks very good on the river Guadalquivir , but even a flyover I could not see any of the characteristic monuments of the city.
When FSX came out I remember that in Europe there were a lot of criticism as some areas were represented: the users were dissatisfied with the Spaniards and the Italians. I know that these people did not own and did not entirely wrong in that, despite various addons, Spain and Italy are still a bit 'too far away from a discrete realization, certainly is a lot better in North America. But we continue the journey and look closely at the photo below: why?
Why is the last image of an ocean you see: I'm done with the oceans, now back to 'sea nostrum '. And you know what? WAS NOW !!!!! In the picture above are near Cadiz, a city famous in the Napoleonic era because it was signed here in 1812 the famous Constitution same name which was later taken as a model for many 800 ( Carlo Alberto of Savoy eg ). With a turn of 90 ° within the decidedly Mediterranean sighted and my goal: Gibraltar !
From here you can see very well the Strait of Gibraltar , right under my Mooney: in the distance are the coasts of Africa.
I look out the window what were called the 'Pillars of Hercules' , where you could not go further: nec plus ultra !
The airport of Gibraltar is the characteristic rock side, but after all the mileage does not bother me much.
And here I am in the final, now you understand why I did the filling in Salamanca was more than Providence? They fired into the reserve as the lights made me out a long time.
does not seem true to be so close to home and I are already in mind all the distant places where I went ... but calm, I still have to come! Oops, I forgot the map of the stage: here it is!
