    I found the correct road on google maps but not the exact spot, it's on Ibiza around Calo el Moro, near "Monkey Ibiza". I'd give a more precise answer but I have to hurry to catch a flight

    Fair enough! The other picture is facing towards Caló el Moro. More specifically, this is outside Café del Mar, an iconic place for the partygoers to come to listen to chillout music and watch the sunset together in between the café and the sea.

    Café del Mar has its own record label and they publish collections of chillout tracks, and I have come to understand that having your tune on one of those collections is something of a prestige in the scene. Your turn!

    I didn't have anything lined up really, so it's probably a very easy one

    To me this seems quite hard as I cannot pick up on many clues. The blue church clock with unusual Arabic numerals seems useful, but I haven't been able to find it yet.

    I’ve actually been there a few years away, thought it might be obscure enough to not be found out immediately. Guess not lol.

    Can’t figure out how to rep you on my phone, will do once I’m home

    That looks eerily familar, Masyaf?

    I hope I don't spoil anyone's fun, but I would like to point out the lush, deciduous vegetation. Most highland areas that I know with jagged mountains like that are rather barren or have coniferous forests.

    Don't know. Thought it might be a dormant or extinct volcano. Only explanation I can come up with for such a landscape.

    I've tried but cannot come up with it. We need a hint.

    Tnx! Apparently not an eroded volcano, but an eroded intrusion of igneous rock.

    And now for something completely different:

    Somewhere in Canada?

    Edit, took a look at TD Bank, and the US seems more fit

    Nope. It's in an east coast state, but not New York.
