kind of obscure i guess

rent, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:24 (thirteen years ago) link

Hmmm... Cairo?

kenan, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:28 (thirteen years ago) link

Driving on the left - Hamilton, Bermuda?

ailsa, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:40 (thirteen years ago) link

Windhoek

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:46 (thirteen years ago) link

yes!

rent, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:47 (thirteen years ago) link

Bah, was just coming to say that :-(

ailsa, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:47 (thirteen years ago) link

I wouldn't have found it if you hadn't pointed out that they were driving on the left. Didn't take much narrowing down after that.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 17:48 (thirteen years ago) link

always reminds me of ren höek

Sarasota?

ailsa, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:25 (thirteen years ago) link

(have been there once, it has some buildings in it)

ailsa, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:26 (thirteen years ago) link

Not Sarasota. : )

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:27 (thirteen years ago) link

looks great lakes-y, is it buffalo?

del griffith, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:34 (thirteen years ago) link

Not Buffalo.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:37 (thirteen years ago) link

yesssssss the return of my favorite thread ever!

69, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:41 (thirteen years ago) link

it is indeed a great lakes city though, confirm/deny?

del griffith, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:44 (thirteen years ago) link

Not a Great Lakes city. Sorry.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:45 (thirteen years ago) link

Is it in America? Was I close with Sarasota?

ailsa, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link

It's in America. Sarasota is nowhere near close. That's a river. Am I supposed to give this many hints?

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:49 (thirteen years ago) link

Not terribly helpful hints, I know.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:50 (thirteen years ago) link

the car in the lower right looks american, plus speedboats and the architecture of the marina seems totally american

69, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:50 (thirteen years ago) link

That's too many! I just wanted to see if I was on the right lines since the two guesses were at the opposite ends of the country.

can anyone discern the logo on the white building?

69, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:50 (thirteen years ago) link

it's either a 1, or an I, or one of those fancy F's

is it north of DC, latitude-wise?

del griffith, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:54 (thirteen years ago) link

i think the overcastness may be leading me to believe it's somewhere with a blustery climate despite the fact that all those trees look to be pretty meager, which would suggest otherwise?

del griffith, Monday, 12 July 2010 18:57 (thirteen years ago) link

It's north of D.C.

The 1 is the logo for Bank One, but this is not the corporate headquarters so that shouldn't tell you anything.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:00 (thirteen years ago) link

God, I gotta stop answering questions! I'm out until someone picks the right city.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:02 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah yeah, i wasnt asking you -- just a general question in case it spurred something in someone else...

69, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:05 (thirteen years ago) link

i see no reason why this lil game couldn't be played with a twenty-questions style yes/no format but maybe that's just me

del griffith, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:10 (thirteen years ago) link

is it bigger than a breadbox?

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:24 (thirteen years ago) link

If it's this easy I'm playing along more often, but North of Washington, on a big river -> Harrisburg?
(Googled Harrisburg and I seem to see that capitol building style dome?)

StanM, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:26 (thirteen years ago) link

springfield, il!

del griffith, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:28 (thirteen years ago) link

Not Harrisburg, sorry.

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:28 (thirteen years ago) link

StanM, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:29 (thirteen years ago) link

xxp: Close!

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:29 (thirteen years ago) link

kkvgz, Monday, 12 July 2010 19:31 (thirteen years ago) link
