Guess the City

another. Bangor.

(n.b., joke handcrafted for breastcrawl)

I checked dozens of Tescos in Slovakia, Poland, Czechia and Hungary for this on Friday, started doing Ireland and N Ireland as well (on Saturday, I guess), but didn’t follow thru. There’s only so many Tesco stations a person can take in in one lifetime. I finally got a handle on navigating Streetview in the process, so it wasn’t all for nothing

I'm still confused where the petrol station is

Where Old Belfast road meets Killeen Ave

Ah, google maps put it in a slightly different location and I couldn't find it

For a second I was like 'whoa is that a bear'

Is this one of the many cities with extensive streetview coverage in Mexico that got referenced during the Salta guesses?

I thought it was a cat

Possibly....

The blue stripe is pretty unusual.

I thought it was a cat

I thought it was pokey the penguin.

It’s a pothole. I have cropped out the local councillor pointing at it.

Based on next to nothing - is it Leon?

It is not Leon.

Ah got excited for a moment having clicked on a random street there (actualy after guessing Leon) and immediately seeing those same cubey trees and very similar buildings.

I'm going to guess San Juan, Puerto Rico. I have noticed they like painting hazard paint on the edge of their pavements there.

It’s not San Juan.

Well as I've got nothing else right now and a cursory search suggests some similarities and they're all incredibly dense to search I'm just gonna guess one that was mentioned - Mazatlan?

Yes, it’s Mazatlan.

I couldn’t resist posting the one city that actually does have a big blue line down the middle of the road.

Haha I genuinely thought that was just the streetview line again. I got rewarded for laziness there, should really try and find the spot

There you go

i clicked around randomly and was suddenly confronted with a senor frog's lol

Wait what I was joking, is that a real blue stripe?!

Looks real!

This was my guess too, or at least it was until I couldn't find it (and the old town part there seems pretty small)

It is real.

Mazatlan has a designated safe tourist route for cruise ship passengers, etc, marked in blue, that looks almost exactly like the street view thing.

Thursday

Kansas City? I feel like i've seen that building before.

Hole in one!

Blimey!

It's the Kansas City Convention Center. I think i must have been eyeballing a conference for work in 2010, which i ultimately didn't get to go to, and it has lodged in my mind.

Thursday II

Bologna

Definitely feels like Italy.

Ancona, maybe?

Not enough Fiat for Italy. There are a few Seat so I'm thinking Spain.

i want to go to there

Positano?

Màlaga?

Rijeka, Croatia

I don't feel good about it though (googled 'princess fitness centar')

That "Fitness Centar" spelling seems to be typical of the Balkans.

you're right tho, ledge:

Ah thats my fault, I put the wrong image up. Basic error

So annoying I usually take care to make sure that isn't possible!

just an inkling, South Africa?

(but seriously, how does one identify a street like that, somewhere on this globe?)

Surely they meant 'Fitness Centaur', which is a legit great name for a gym.
