Hot and rocky! My phone kept overheating. But guided by Google Maps I walked to and found the site of:

Prehistoric T-shaped anchor, Son Xoriguer, Illes Balears, Spain

A weathered, rocky terrain with a carved T shaped deep groove. A single foot wearing a black sandal is visible at the bottom left, highlighting the uneven surface. Small patches of green plants are scattered within the rock crevices. A rocky beach coastline with clear blue water, a red inflatable boat in the shallow bay, and a small cart on the beach holding kayaks and paddleboards. In the background, there are white buildings and green trees under a clear blue sky. A sandy, narrow path flanked by low stone walls, surrounded by green shrubs and bushes under a clear blue sky. The path appears to lead towards a distant horizon with minimal vegetation. Wooden informational signboard at Cova des Pardals - Son Vell in a natural, rocky landscape. The sign includes a map, text details about the area, regulations, and symbols indicating prohibited activities. The sky is clear and blue. A rugged rocky landscape with small green plants scattered throughout. The background features low bushes and a clear blue sky.

Andrei Rublev, 1966 - β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

I’ve seen Tarkovsky’s other six films, some more than once. Now I’ve come to Andrei Rublev and of all of them I found this the most difficult to watch. The setting and subjects are just completely unfamiliar to me. Visually impressive and interesting to watch but I needed to refer to a plot synopsis quite a lot to understand events in the film. I’m sure I’ll watch it again - I need to 🫀
