Thanks guys!

It really was a great trip. With some fascinating history, I especially liked the "100 ton gun". 8)

I almost forgot to tell, I also saw a Nimrod land, and later I found out it had actually spilled fuel all over the runway, which was closed for some hours.
I don't know if it'd declared an emergency, or it was just a small accident that happened upon landing, but it was pretty cool to see. 8)

Wildlife.. :P ;D

Very nice. I'd like to go there some day... The approach is interesting to say the least. For some reason the Spanish don't want to make it easy for us to fly there... ;D

There's about forty of them, and apparently, if they leave the island, Gibraltar will no longer be a UK Posession, so they're essentially the Tower's Ravens.
