The mechanical clock

It's 9pm in the village of Valldemossa in the Serra Tramuntana, and we hear the bells chime the hour from a clock tower with an interesting mechanical clockwork sound that's clearly audible on a quiet night like this. Following the chimes, we walk around the church, to hear the sounds of restaurants doing a brisk evening trade.
