google search: trees i don't what kind + smallish river + rolling hills + bland low buildings

Granny Dainger, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:11 (fifteen years ago) link

haha, yeah, that's spoiled my research fun.

ailsa, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:11 (fifteen years ago) link

#3 url gives it away though

Zelda Zonk, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:12 (fifteen years ago) link

#3 is not very easy for Europeans

gabbneb, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:14 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm guessing somewhere in the north east of the US - Massachussets or somesuch? Might be way off though. Any clues?

ailsa, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:37 (fifteen years ago) link

This is based on trees and scenery looking like it would be somewhere geographically similar to Northern Europe, but that one building and the grid layout of the roads looking American. Am I on the right lines?

ailsa, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:39 (fifteen years ago) link

I was thinking upstate NY.

Granny Dainger, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:40 (fifteen years ago) link

Damn I thought it was Legoland...

snoball, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:40 (fifteen years ago) link

If it had a highway cutting through it it would look like Concord, NH.

Ithaca?

Dead Cat Bounce (Ed), Monday, 13 October 2008 14:45 (fifteen years ago) link

Casper?

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Monday, 13 October 2008 14:46 (fifteen years ago) link

it's in the Western US

gabbneb, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:47 (fifteen years ago) link

Vegas

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Monday, 13 October 2008 14:47 (fifteen years ago) link

it's about the size of Pittsfield, MA

gabbneb, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:48 (fifteen years ago) link

or Casper, WY (which it isn't)

gabbneb, Monday, 13 October 2008 14:50 (fifteen years ago) link

i cant even tell what country that is. the pointy orange thing and two church steeples make me think europe somewhere but that bridge and some of those apartment buildings seem america? wait. is that an amusement park?

Haha, you just described Canada without knowing it.

Dead Cat Bounce (Ed), Monday, 13 October 2008 15:04 (fifteen years ago) link

Granny Dainger, Monday, 13 October 2008 15:05 (fifteen years ago) link

Legoland

gabbneb, Monday, 13 October 2008 15:23 (fifteen years ago) link

I'd say somewhere in asia, maybe india. Chennai?

Jibe, Monday, 13 October 2008 15:24 (fifteen years ago) link

and the dinosaur has been filled in in the meantime, apparently: https://maps.app.goo.gl/zo8RskseWQv5LGZR9

StanM, Sunday, 17 March 2024 19:37 (one month ago) link

(nevermind, the original dinosaur is more to the right)

StanM, Sunday, 17 March 2024 19:38 (one month ago) link

Good one! Increasingly difficult to find suitable images that aren't going to be given up by image search straightaway

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 06:41 (one month ago) link

yeah I maybe shouldn't have replied, because I've seen that thing IRL :-(

StanM, Monday, 18 March 2024 06:42 (one month ago) link

I disagree, real life knowledge should be used

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 08:45 (one month ago) link

Doesn't seem like the one with the roundabout tram wires, or the one with the couple on the steps, were ever got? unless they were the same place and the same as the canteen and wooden shop, which aldo got but didn't reveal?

gene besserit (ledge), Monday, 18 March 2024 09:00 (one month ago) link

is roundabout with tall building? Thats definitely still unguessed

I can't remember couple on steps will have to check later

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 09:16 (one month ago) link

As I said, I lensed it and it gave me the coffee shop which is in Torzhok in Tver Oblast. Found the other structures there to confirm.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Monday, 18 March 2024 14:48 (one month ago) link

I had never even heard of it, and it seems pretty small for a city, hence me saying I would never have got it otherwise.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Monday, 18 March 2024 14:49 (one month ago) link

I had never heard of it either, it started when I saw a photo of this cat

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 16:36 (one month ago) link

Interesting ShariVari was initially thinking Daugavpils, I thought maybe Smolensk or somewhere in that general region

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 16:47 (one month ago) link

After checking the Tver oblast, came across this Torzhok place, that looks like a film set and at one stage looked like it was going to be a UNESCO world heritage site

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 16:50 (one month ago) link

and there he was, the very same cat, in a streetview

https://i.ibb.co/hd82XxV/Screenshot-2024-03-18-at-17-45-36.png

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 16:52 (one month ago) link

I turned the above streetview around, and they they were, the couple on the stairs

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 16:55 (one month ago) link

Here they are again in some kind of resort area in the reverse streetview of the Lada 110 shown above, which they seem circumspect about

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Monday, 18 March 2024 17:01 (one month ago) link

Then there was a photo of their dinner

Spring is in the air

Tow Law City (cherry blossom), Wednesday, 20 March 2024 08:09 (four weeks ago) link

The roofs and chimneys look UK to me, and there's a BeeSafe security company with that logo in the UK. My guess is a northern or a Midlands town.

Zelda Zonk, Wednesday, 20 March 2024 08:32 (four weeks ago) link

I'm confused, is this the same place as the photos of the couple?

lord of the rongs (anagram), Wednesday, 20 March 2024 09:01 (four weeks ago) link

Definitely not.

Agree it's Britain, not sure Ive seen that form of cigarette bin anywhere else either.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Wednesday, 20 March 2024 09:06 (four weeks ago) link

Beesafe cover Grimsby/Hull/Bridlington type areas so quite narrow.

Hello I'm shitty gatsworth (aldo), Wednesday, 20 March 2024 09:12 (four weeks ago) link
