dubai?

montenegro?

Alex_B · Mar 17, 2007

no, both rather far away! .. ok, i realise now this might be tougher than I thought, since none of these images feeds the stereotypes you have of that country!

It is the harbour-town of a huge city ...

Alex_B · Mar 17, 2007

ok, another hint, this time feeding the stereotypes.

I have to say strictly speaking this is not exactly the same town, but this one was taken at a place/town directly adjacent.

Thanks for the new hint!
Osaka, Japan?

Alex_B · Mar 17, 2007

No, yes ... now we just have to narrow it down

I cannot check it anyway if you phone someone

I am not trying to be cocky, but I am pretty sure I am right. I won't be able to be on the computer until tomorrow night, so in order to keep you guys happy, I will post the next pictures now.

Again, sorry about posting before being confirmed correct, sorry about the bad scans, and don't mind the joker (yeah that's me) in the last one....

Sorry Alex, I don't have a guess for your shots.

But for surfingfireman:

Quito, Equador

Actually it's the equator line outside Quito.

Yes, you are right. I wasn't sure if the equator monument was going to be the give away or not. Especially since The Amazing Race was in Quito this year and showed the statue of the Virgin...
