Somewhere under the Rock of Gibraltar lies some open spaces and alley type areas that are used to train military personnel. House frontages have been painted on the walls to act as an underground street, it almost looks as if they were to construct cave houses but gave up after the first hurdle!
There is also a reservoir used by the the Government of Gibraltar to supply the civilians of the land with the wet stuff, there are many underground reservoirs, an ideal place due to the heat outside.
The pumping station would occasionally spring into life and scare you half to death, the light itself scared us enough to make a cautious entrance!
Looking around the training ground, the tunnel carried on and the more light appeared, this time a long well lit tunnel, this was a storage area for what looked like any company with the money. My favourite was the bouncy castle and inflatable company!!
This vehicle was the first feature we saw on the way in, such a lovely surprise...

2. The black pipe carries the water from the reservoir...

10. The bags contained some kind of foam underlay
