Although it`s changed a heck of a lot since was was living in Gib as a child, and the flats we lived in adjacent to Eastern Beach have long since been demolished, I`d still like to go back there someday, thanks for sharing.
The area near the new tunnel completely though me of as to where I was until you was back at the end of Eastern Beach. To me it seemed an unnecessary diversion. I first travelled to Gib with the Military in 1979 for a two year posting and return again in 1986 as a civillian to work at the Rock Hotel and the Wig and Gown Bar, I left Gib in 1996 to return to England where I am now retired from any further work and spend my time watching interestin videos on TH-cam.

Great video . Really helpful. We live in Spain but always walk across the border into GiB centre rather than drive so we still get the runway walkover 😊
booooh. you humans will put a tunnel anywhere . it was such a nice little adventure to get across the landing strip . i was there in 1993 and watched a plane doing a start through instead of a full landing . the skills of jumbo jet pilots is just unreal . loved gibraltar
it depends on the mood of the spanish police, if they are in a good mood the queues are small and you can go in and out in a matter of minutes. but if they’re in a bad mood it can take hours.
Pretty weird seeing a British Territory Gibraltar driving on the right side of the road and using left hand drive cars. The reason why Gibraltar drives on the right side of the road and using left hand drive cars is because Gibraltar is bordered with Spain which is a right hand traffic country and using left hand drive cars.
the winters are mild, the temperatures don’t go below 0. but it does get windy and it makes it feel colder. summers are quite warm, but nothing too extreme

Me too, 1966 to 1969. Aged 14-17, what a time and place to grow up. That tunnel goes under where my flat used to be!

Left here in 59? is this Gibraltar, never recognised a thing, I was stationed at Casemates. The Royal Sussex regiment was there then. Halbert

Very nice video
Is it difficult to cross the border by car, and how long does the process take?
it depends on the mood of the spanish police, if they are in a good mood the queues are small and you can go in and out in a matter of minutes. but if they’re in a bad mood it can take hours.
5:11 are those UN Trucks parked up on the side? And I presume the speed limit signs are in MPH in Gibraltar like in the UK?
they could be indeed www.offgridweb.com/transportation/toyota-gibraltar-the-secret-factory-that-builds-trucks-for-the-un/amp/
the speed limits are in km/h
We changed to metric decades ago, and personally, I prefer it, kilometres, Celsius, Kilos, Metres.
@@greengardengreen6666why no metres per second, or Kelvin? 😉
@@desiretheright Because the roads don't go to Saturn.

What would be the point of that?
I’m sure you could squeeze one more roundabout in there, if you really tried.

You get snow storm in winter time ? Want temperatures in summer or winter
the winters are mild, the temperatures don’t go below 0. but it does get windy and it makes it feel colder. summers are quite warm, but nothing too extreme
What do pedestrians and bicycle riders do to enter Gibraltar now?
Both pedestrians and bicycle riders can still use the runaway or take the new tunnel, whatever’s more convenient.
Does Gib use metric speed limit signs?
that’s correct:)
No custom to drive through?
there are custom checks, usually when you don’t declare anything you can go through.
You drove right by my house at 0.53
I’ll wave next time ;) 👋🏻
