Guess the City

https://amandau.com.py/nuestros-locales

they had over 190 branches in the country in 2017 - this could potentially also be a copycat parlour, don’t see the Amandau logo anywhere - also would they even sell beer?

Lonely guy just thinking baout Paraguayan ice cream parlours

gotta say i think going straight to google lens or whatever is a bit of a hack... i was only comfortable doing it when we had been stuck on that same mud flat pic for like two weeks

A second look

yes, it is Asunción, Paraguay:

https://maps.app.goo.gl/Nzhk96DAqyE7g6kW9?g_st=ic

haven’t been able to pinpoint that specific ice cream parlour yet tho

there is an encampment for homeless people just a few steps away from that second view tho

https://maps.app.goo.gl/7E6zH6Ygik1m2LS89?g_st=ic

well done!

I should make less use of ‘tho’ tho

Asuncion it is

the first pic is immediately to the southeast (I always aim to get subsequent views pretty close to the first view)

It was an Amandau outlet, but one that is now closed down. That wasn't intentional, I only realised when I forgot where it was and had to play my own city in order to find it again to find a nearby image for the second view

I was thinking not Asunción because it had been mentioned ITT already. (other cities in Paraguay are pretty odd it seems)

Asunción was a work in progress! I was basically waiting for the next view to get confirmation (although, granted, it could have potentially also been a different Paraguayan city)

aware of the second clause, that is

Partly I was away from my computer for most of last week, partly I'd forgotten where it actually was, and partly I wanted to give a chance for someone to find the view (even though I couldn't remember where it was myself)

It appears quite a few of the other cities in Paraguay are just extensions of Asuncion!

Friday time Streetview time

Almost certainly Britain. Bottom half of the wall looks like Bath Stone or Cotswold Stone which doesn't make it far out of those areas.

Road marking are not typical for the uk though - or those sluice valve markers.

sv means stop valve ime but yes it does indicate an english speaking country

can't be that many castles with trampolines

oh, I thought that was netting for catching falling building chunks

I think it's safe to say we haven't got a clue? :-)

Help? :(

Another clue please cherry blossom!

Pembroke?

Here's a game for all you OSINT fans, in the photo below is a location you have to find I'll give you a hint it's in donbass and you have to come back with the exact location in the replies.

Aiden Aslin has posted one here as well if anyone wants a go at that too

first instinct is New Zealand. maybe on an estuary? no time to search right now tho

pittosporums (i think) & a tī kōuka/cabbage tree would suggest so... getting a south island vibe. is corrugated iron roofing even a thing outside the south pacific?

driving on the left side of the road

So the road markings from the first picture are a clearway which is also a bike lane. Also applies to Australia.

As shown here:

http://www.drivingtests.co.nz/roadcode-questions/car/parking/a-broken-yellow-line-painted-close-to-th/

an australian c2 line has evenly spaced breaks 3m on 3m off. at least in nsw. looks like nz.

The vehicle registration ticket in the bottom corner of the windscreen looks like New Zealand

Dunedin?

Could be Lyttelton

So, Christchurch.

I wasn't sure if it was Kandallah or Newlands looking across to East Harbour, so Wellington.

Yeah I don't think it is Lyttelton/Banks Peninsula, it looks much too populated.

dunedin fits the geography, i couldn't find the castle though

Also the neighbourhood watch signs on the pole look very New Zealand
