Gaucin is a town about 30 minutes drive from Jimena, on the Ronda road. It is much higher than here, and always feels colder. We had guests staying with us so I took them there; of course the castle was shut as it was Monday, but for future reference it opens on Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays 🙂 We had a nice walk around, and took some photos, which I used to draw this detail of part of the castle looking up. The views from up there across to Gibraltar and Africa were amazing.

Beautiful drawing, Wendy. I know what you mean about the view, it’s an incredible feeling to be able to look across and see Africa – it gives me a thrill every time. Enjoy your weekend 🙂

That wall is very trippy. The stones look like people. Seen a few stone walls, and a couple of walls stoned. Never thought I’d see a stoned wall.

Great drawing of such a difficult subject Wendy 😀 I must go up there again once my balance is fixed as it was closed when Ute http://utesmile.wordpress.com/ and I climbed up the cobbled path last August. xox ❤

Lovely drawing, I did walk up there ( leaving Ralph sitting on a bench) and the view was wonderful. It was closed unfortunately but still worth going there! Gaucin was a lovely town with its white houses, I loved it!

Yes, maybe one day someone will actually go on the right day and manage to get into the castle! I’ll have to go back and draw it 🙂
