There is a military base in Gran Canaria! It is right next to the ball built on the highest point of the island! Maybe that is where he was!

Yeah, I lived here for a year but the climate is not for me. I like my cold and in Summer it gets excruciatingly hot. I do however love to stay for holidays. Or come to clear my mind for a couple of months. My aunt has lived here for around 20 years so I always have a place to stay.
