Name That Skyline - Picture Game

Is it a desalination plant?

Is it a desalination plant?

No - and it's unlikely one would be needed in that part of the world.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Nuclear power plant?

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Could be...

Cern LHC?

Technically it's not the Windscale piles which were the first nuclear reactors on what is now the Sellafield site, built after WWII to produce material for atom bombs. But it is the opening by the Queen on 17 October 1956 of Calder Hall, an extension to the site hosting the world's first nuclear reactor producing electricity into the grid, so I'll give it to you.

@Cheshire Cat , you're up

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Clue not in England.

Llangollen Canal, Llangollen, Wales. We were there in 1989, but I couldn't find my picture (taken from the valley below) to get the proper name of the aqueduct from it.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Close it is the Llangollen canal but I want the name of the structure and the place it is located.

Check the internet aqueduct Llangollen canal over the Dee.

Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, Trevor

Well done your on now.

 

[D.B.Moody]

This is from 2008

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Feels like Italy?

 

[D.B.Moody]

Feels like Italy?

That's because it is.

 

[pvtpublic]

Naples?

 

[D.B.Moody]

Not Naples. About 5% the size of Naples, but, like Naples, a regional capital.

 

[govner1]

L’Aquila

 

[D.B.Moody]

Not L'Aquila. L'Aguila is not quite half the size. Location wise, not too far off; about 110 miles.

 

[govner1]

Amatrice

 

[D.B.Moody]

about 20 miles closer, but it's not Amatrice

 

[govner1]

San Pelligrino

 

[D.B.Moody]

Not San Pelligrino. Are these cities you've tried known for having an aqueduct that is now a walkway? Aqueduct was the theme I riffed on.

 

[govner1]

I’ve been to all of them. I’ll keep trying.

 

[govner1]

Spelling or Perugia

 

[D.B.Moody]

I think the computer suggested "Spelling" for you in place of the city you meant. We'll just forget that, because it is Perguia.
You're up @govner1.

 

[govner1]

This may be a repeat, but, here you go!

Guessing US, specifically Florida, Gulf Coast.

(acknowledging it's probably much trickier)

 

[pvtpublic]

That is Sydney Australia, picture taken just before that pelican choked on a clown fish...

(acknowledging it's probably much trickier)

Florida yes. Gulf Coast no

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Quay West?

 

[govner1]

Too far south

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Miami

 

[govner1]

very close

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Fort Lauderdale

 

[govner1]

too far north of Miami

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Hollywood

 

[govner1]

Still north. @chehsirecat was much closer.
