In keeping with her focus on the elderly and following various visits to residential homes and day centres, Her Worship the Mayor, Carmen Gomez, had the pleasure of taking a group of Bella Vista Day Centre Service Users on a thoroughly enjoyable Rock Tour. 

The tour departed Bella Vista and the first stop was Europa Point and the Bistro Point Restaurant where a fine breakfast of tea/coffee and pastries was enjoyed by all. There was even a performance by the All-Ireland Irish Dancing Champion, a youngster by the name of John Morris, who happened to be present with his family and offered to perform for Her Worship and our senior citizens. 

Following the breakfast the tour continued with a visit to the Upper Rock Nature Reserve with stops at the Queen’s Balcony and Ape’s Den. Finally the Airport Tunnel at Kingsway was transited as many of those present had not yet had the opportunity of seeing it. Fond memories of Gibraltar were rekindled, and it is the wish of our Mayor to make these excursions a regular feature of her tenure. 

The Mayor’s Office is very grateful to MH Bland for kindly offering the tour bus on a complimentary basis.
