The Rocks of Gonzalo Pt. 2   Leave a comment

The observatory on Gonzales Hill can make you feel as though you've walked into an M.C. Escher drawing.

The whole landscape there is pretty surreal. Victoria seems a distant dream and panoramic views over the shining waters of the straits inspire feelings of flight.

The old timers thought that the mountain resembled a giant...

and a "Sphinx".
