Yay! A winner!!!

Yes, Thomas. This is San Antonio in Texas.

Now where are you going to take us this time????

This should be easy for some........

Sorry that there's four!
These are from an incident that happened outside my door one night when I was living in a certain country.........

Ireland?

China?

No guys, wrong wrong wrong. Ireland, however, is on the right continent as such.
Here's a big clue- a picture of the cafe downstairs that morning----

Well, Thomas, I've known all along where it is, but I'm not going to tell (could even name the town), else I'd win a fourth time. Others need their chance, too!

Going by that, I'd say Germany!

Mad Malteaser is the winner!!!!!

I was wondering when LaFoto would say something!!!
They're pictures from a riot outside my door on Schulterblatt, Hamburg on May Day in 1999. Interesting German tradition!!
I wrote the story up-

Be warned, it's a bit harsh.
cheers

Since I've only been to that very town (Hamburg) on Sunday and Monday, for it's just a 45 minute ride from where I live, I thought I better keep myself out of the game this time. It's a bit unfair if someone's living practically "next to that place"...(though I am prepared to win at least 5 times more - all the prize pix are stored up already

).

Mad Malteaser, go tease us: take us somewhere you've been

So where do you live LaFoto? I spent some time in Luneburg too. Top spot. I'll always love it.

LaFoto · Oct 13, 2004

From where I live, it is equally far to go to Hamburg (north-east) or Bremen (south-west) - it's some 45 - 50 minutes both ways.
And Luneburg is as far, only in yet another direction. I would not take the Autobahn (A1) to get there, but Landstraße.

One of my favourite parts of the world! Luneburger Heath, Bremerhafen, Hamburg- moody, misty part of the world. Lots of beer and nice folk. Was very happy to spend the 2 years there!
