Arles?

Looks vaguely Czech... but also LHD so I don't think so.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Saturday, 13 March 2021 21:47 (three years ago) link

LHD or a one-way street?

it looks a bit like my fave childhood Czech mole, Krtek, on the roundabout at first glance.

calzino, Saturday, 13 March 2021 21:52 (three years ago) link

...unless those are one way streets?

I had the same kinda feeling re Funchal, for some reason, incl i-guess-not.

The first pic I thought slightly resembled some fancy-ass hotel I stayed in Peru but the 2nd pic def feels more Euro.

Looks more like Pingu. Where do they have penguins? Argentina? Chile?

Woke For Luck (Tom D.), Saturday, 13 March 2021 23:59 (three years ago) link

which country has a penguin in a red hard hat?

calzino, Sunday, 14 March 2021 00:26 (three years ago) link

Wales

scamp til you're damp (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 14 March 2021 00:28 (three years ago) link

I can't tell if it is a type I or type II hard hat, need that 3d photo historic-future tech that Deckard has at hand in Blade Runner to sort this out.

calzino, Sunday, 14 March 2021 00:37 (three years ago) link

he could be a puffin tbf

scamp til you're damp (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 14 March 2021 00:41 (three years ago) link

Googling "penguin in a red hard hat" proved surprisingly popular in that there's a Disney game called Club Penguin where a red hard hat appears to be a prize but that's as far as I got. It seems to have been popular everywhere and I'm too tired to try and narrow it down right now, way past bed time

*Proved surprisingly fruitful even, told you I was tired

Mistah Club Penguin, he dead

scamp til you're damp (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 14 March 2021 01:44 (three years ago) link

I've lost my reading glasses for closely looking at stuff and I'm overdue an eye-test by 2 years but I think now it might be a woolly hat rather that a hard hat.

calzino, Sunday, 14 March 2021 01:45 (three years ago) link

looks like a coil of red poop to me

I think the inscrutability of this one possibly points to sub-tropical China, but also lazily guessed because Cam has lived there.

calzino, Sunday, 14 March 2021 02:07 (three years ago) link

I "love" how this was first posted as "easy one"...

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Sunday, 14 March 2021 02:22 (three years ago) link

I thought the penguin was wearing a Devo energy dome (but I'm working off of limited sleep tbqh)

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Sunday, 14 March 2021 02:23 (three years ago) link

is it in DEVOn?

StanM, Sunday, 14 March 2021 03:32 (three years ago) link

I'm getting more of a South American vibe off this one, at first glance

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 03:52 (three years ago) link

The guy in front of the little green truck thing, I don't see anyone in Europe wearing that hat

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 04:52 (three years ago) link

Yes, definite South American vibe.

Woke For Luck (Tom D.), Sunday, 14 March 2021 09:04 (three years ago) link

Besides the skiing bird (or two?) there's another figure over on the right with a red and white mushroom hat and pants that may have a story to tell

The two pictures seem like different places, which keeps throwing me off

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 11:51 (three years ago) link

the penguin is on skis , in case that helps

StanM, Sunday, 14 March 2021 12:13 (three years ago) link

Yeah I see skiing is involved, though I'm not 100 its a penguin!

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 12:18 (three years ago) link

Penguins, skis, red and white all suggest Chile and I think some places in Santiago have similar street lights. The green building is throwing me though.

that looks a bit like one of the themed fast food zones at Flamingoland

MansiĆ³n del Seno, Shanghai

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 12:51 (three years ago) link

Ha! not even that far out

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 12:52 (three years ago) link

at least I managed to guess the country correctly last night.

calzino, Sunday, 14 March 2021 12:55 (three years ago) link

I know Macau is supposed to be part of China, but considering the two hours it can take to get across the border, it certainly feels like you're going to a different country.

Bastard Lakes (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 14 March 2021 12:59 (three years ago) link

How did you get it, Anagram?

Bastard Lakes (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 14 March 2021 13:00 (three years ago) link

sorry, thats the second view

cherry blossom, Sunday, 14 March 2021 13:01 (three years ago) link

Google maps labeling Macau as "Zhuhai", smh

Bastard Lakes (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 14 March 2021 13:02 (three years ago) link

Got lucky, just googled "yellow church" and it was in the first page of image results.

This is the first one of these I've ever got so I'm feeling very pleased with myself. Not so much into setting them myself though so please go ahead.

joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Sunday, 14 March 2021 13:02 (three years ago) link

I was a long way out on this, I'd got it into my head the second photo was Monterrey Argentina but that the first photo wasn't. Saw the third photo and abandoned any notions of south americ
