Yeah, I've always heard of the 'Rock of Gibraltar' and the war battles but have never actually seen pictures of it. Spectacular!

It's a penisula at the entrance to the Med but I believe it's British ruled but self governing most famous for it's huge rock formation depicted in the pictures.

Gripen:
I thought it was the British navy base in the Med?  ???

MightyHunter:
It is an RAF base based on the tip of spain looking over to morroco. The British war fuel reserves are kept within the rock. Its mostly occupied by Brits and has avery british feel. Tax free most companies set up home here as its away of getting round tax. Its a great night out on the piss and the rock has monkeys that steal things from you.

All in all worth a visit   ;)
