Field Trip #2 -- Gibraltar


We went to Gibraltar to visit the court there. We witnessed an oral argument regarding the damages and attorneys fees for a case that had already been decided. The lawyers and judges had to wear robes and wigs. There was also a coat of arms at the front of the courtroom.
"Justice is Magical" in Gibraltar. Unfortunately, the brief history we were given did not include an explanation of why there is a unicorn in the coat of arms at the front of the courtroom.

As far as the monkey was concerned, this is all part of a day's work.
