This hole in a rock on the ground looks like a good spot for a pivot point for a wooden door.

One of the few towns on Gozo. Seeing the cathedral in that town made me realize just what it must have been like in the middle ages for someone to enter a city with a cathedral. When the cathedral is a hundred feet taller than anything else in town and when it’s so incredibly massive, you can’t help but be impressed!

To get around on Gozo we hooked up with a tour company. The vehicle wasn’t the most comfortable in the world, but it worked. This is the only tour like this I’ve ever been on. I think it’ll be the last too. I like independent traveling much better.
