Mallorca then?

StanM, Thursday, 25 November 2021 09:29 (two years ago) link

to the right of the ghost there's an arrow pointing to the right with something that I can't read but it somehow doesn't look like western letters?

The German sign is for a self-help group ('Selbsthilfe') offering support for people with alcohol and prescription drug ('Medikamente') issues.

The eagle logo to the right of it may be the symbol of the self-help group, as the background is the same colour.

There are pedestrian crossing signs like that in Mallorca.

o. nate, Saturday, 27 November 2021 23:47 (two years ago) link

I haven't really found where to go look around yet on Mallorca, to be honest

Out on the street II (not on the street)

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Sunday, 28 November 2021 19:10 (two years ago) link

oh wow! well done!

StanM, Sunday, 28 November 2021 20:01 (two years ago) link

how did you find it?

StanM, Sunday, 28 November 2021 20:03 (two years ago) link

Mainly luck, don't really know as I thought I'd start in Germany. I was looking for 'moto' cafe then realised it was Euro Lloto, which are all over. Somehow on Google maps it was showing me different locations with the inside photos - I clicked on a few and one looked like the one in the photo, so clicked around it.

That one went quick - quite a few clues in that photo so I thought it might

I haven't seen a bar showing teletext before

Looks very much like Barrow-In-Furness to me.

It was just a speculative punt based on what looked like the clock tower in the distance with the submarine hall next to it to the left.

Long enough attention span for a Stephen Bissette blu-ray extra (aldo), Monday, 29 November 2021 11:12 (two years ago) link

haha well done!

The gut feeling ones are the best ones

ignore the blue line (or something), Monday, 29 November 2021 11:27 (two years ago) link

oosh, that one was well guessed - the feel ones are definitely the best

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Monday, 29 November 2021 15:59 (two years ago) link

omg! world record? :-)

StanM, Monday, 29 November 2021 16:16 (two years ago) link

+ I was today years old when I learned what a submarine hall looks like.

StanM, Monday, 29 November 2021 17:53 (two years ago) link

One lucky guess does not make you as good as the rest of you. I just lurk in case a miracle like this comes up.

I'm busy the rest of the week, happy for anybody else to post the next one.

No Submarines

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 11:42 (two years ago) link

Looks like we're back in the US.

o. nate, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 14:18 (two years ago) link

bridge looks just like the wabash railroad bridge near pittsburgh, but nearby area/street views don't add up

Incredible, they're falling like dominos.

:O

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 16:15 (two years ago) link

The last two have definitely been impressive! Looks like there was a good deal of gut feeling in this one too, then just narrowing it down from there?

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 16:20 (two years ago) link

wow again!

StanM, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 16:22 (two years ago) link

Yea gut feeling on the Ohio River. Couldn't shake Wabash bridge but then started going thru a wiki list of other bridges over the river, pic of Bellaire bridge looked spot on.

Seems it's no longer in use and "a decrepit nuisance that residents of both states are eager to demolish." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellaire_Bridge

I'll try my hand at posting. First time getting it right before, still feel a lil green.

tomorrow, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 16:58 (two years ago) link

Britain since the steering wheel is on the right, but this house in the front looks kinda New Orleansy, that's probably the red herring here

StanM, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 17:04 (two years ago) link

At a glance first thought was somewhere in Ireland, mainly due to the houses the other side of the garage, but yes not sure about that first house on the left

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 17:19 (two years ago) link

oh damn! how?

StanM, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 20:34 (two years ago) link

amazing run here

a (waterface), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 20:38 (two years ago) link

I was thinking Wheeling, WV from the pic before last, so I wasn't too far off.

o. nate, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 20:50 (two years ago) link

asutralian vibes - lots of toyotas, road markings, architecure of the house on the left (particularly the roll formed metal roof and sandstone retaining wall), gum tree in the background. compact low rise housing looks like the south. also looks a bit like new zealand of course.

micah, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 21:07 (two years ago) link

Yep immediately thought Australia with that pic, the house verandahs are the giveaway.

Zelda Zonk, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 21:44 (two years ago) link

nice job. the house design definitely threw me, so i figured it a good twist

tomorrow, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 22:14 (two years ago) link

Wow again, was coming back to look at this one properly, thinking it might be NZ, but its gone already

This guesses in this weeks as good as they've been, each one from distance leaving the keeper with no chance

Christmas in Davenport (cherry blossom), Tuesday, 30 November 2021 22:19 (two years ago) link

very impressive, all.
