A blustery Day, and the Straits of Gibraltar.
"From Edinburgh to India & Burmah"
William G. Burn Murdoch
We are getting into the Straits of Gibraltar-a nice blustery day, the black tramps coming out of the Mediterranean bury their noses deep in foam, and roll up and show all the beauty of steamers' lines!

We have been on Spanish soil-I suppose I may call it Spanish soil though it is held by Britain-have seen fair Spanish women, had sun, wind, rain, wet decks, and dry decks, and the bustle and interest of dropping anchor in Port, with all the movement of tugs and boats and people going and coming to and from shore-the roadstead blustery and fluttering with flags, and everything afloat bobbing and moving, excepting the great grey men-of-war.
