South of the Canaries, down Mexico way

 A scrubby, sun-dressed landscape.  Why not make a film here?  Well, you want some rugged and bleakness - with a decent bar to had.  Many films have come here for ancient and alien landscapes - or when Mexico isn’t Mexico enough for you.

• ^{“Wrath of the Titans” (2012) – Bits of the film were shot in Tenerife, showing the volcanic landscapes and rugged coastlines.}
• ^{“One Million Years B.C.” (1966) – Raquel Welch was partially filmed on the beaches of Tenerife.}
• ^{“Rambo: Last Blood” (2019) – While the majority of the film takes place in Mexico, some scenes were shot in Tenerife to depict the Spanish border.}
• ^{“Outcast” (2014)} 
• ^{“Jason Bourne” (2016)}
• ^{“Clash of the Titans” (2010)}
• ^{“Fast & Furious 6” (2013) – Well, one of them had to end up here.}

^{We will scrape the edge of El Salto - which sounds like an invented and ironic Spanish sailor’s name for a 1970s kids TV adventure series.  About 750 people live in the municipality, half of whom are in El Salto central.  The place has grown from 220 [91 in El Salto] since 2003.}

^{The Restaurante Mirador del Salto is closed on Wednesday and Thursdays.  Every other day it is a 1-11pm sort of a place [half an hour earlier on both ends on Sundays.  Two days ago Sara said ‘Very good food, high-quality grilled meat, good prices... They gave us dinner even though they were about to close. Thank you very much!’  Three weeks ago Mila felt ‘A lovely restaurant with a beautiful view in the style of a Spanish village. Friendly waiters, quick service, and very delicious food!   You know, Gunnar added the following and I think it is worth the read.  ‘Such a great place for anything from coffee to wood grilled steaks. We just dropped by for coffee and after taking a look at the place we decided to return for dinner. Our steaks and chicken tasted absolutely lovely with the smoky flavor from the wood fire. Absolutely worth the drive.’}

^{We have gone down 107m today - but still have 289 more before we reach the sea.}
