The wedding reception setting, Finca el Drago is still there to this date, and looks to be holding up well since 1994.

You can imagine the scene by the pool unfolding for the DeathList exchange, as well as bachelor night when Dudley got dropped off drunk at the cottage on the property, back to "da Boss."


Here are some photos of the island's peak / volcano, El Teide, and the national park around it, as well as more shots of the villa and compound. Generally, the island overall is a pretty spectacular place on many fronts. This NASA satellite radar shot from 1994 gives a great view of the whole island and its shape.


Parts of the island really can look like Mars, and here's the video shot there in 1991 by The Shamen - Move Any Mountain, as referenced in the chapter and included in the music playlist.


And as also mentioned, right after filiming the video here, Will Sinnott (or Will Sin) drowned while swiming off the coast of nearby La Gomera, another island that is part of the Canaries chain.
