Kamala River

I don't think we are allowed to discuss politics.

 

[D.B.Moody]

I'll try Sunkoshi or Sun Kosi or Sunkosi.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Kamala River

That's the one, I was trying to be topical, and couldn't find a suitable Biden.

@emac813, you're up.

 

[emac813]

Ok

 

[schmurf]

If I read that illuminated sign properly, Scranton.... Pennsylvania

 

[emac813]

Ah yes I couldn’t read it on my phone

 

[schmurf]

I could vaguely read "electric city", the rest not so much... but with the help of Google...

 

[schmurf]

I don't know how easy/difficult this one is, so I'm posting a couple of pics just in case...

 

[D.B.Moody]

Toronto, ON, Canada
edit: the first picture sure looks like this building

 

[schmurf]

Nope

Sorry I didn't see your edit, and yes that certainly looks like the same building. I'll admit I took the photos from the web but it was filed under the same place I am thinking of. I'm guessing the author of the website I took the pic from made an error.

Disregard that photo and I give this clue instead, it's sort of a freetown within a capital of a European country.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Freetown Christiania in Copenhagen, Denmark

 

[schmurf]

That's correct! You're up @D.B.Moody

 

[D.B.Moody]

A beautiful morning from our hotel window:

 

[D.B.Moody]

There's a nice gate, if you're in to big, impressive, gaudy, gold-leafed gates and fences:

 

[duncan.brown]

That's the Versailles gate, so the original picture must be the Château de Versailles.

 

[D.B.Moody]

It is Versailles and the Palace itself as you suggested. Spent our first nights there in a trip to France in 2013. You're up @duncan.brown.

 

[duncan.brown]

Ah, it will be nice when I can go back to Europe again...

How about this one:

 

[D.B.Moody]

Ah, it will be nice when I can go back to Europe again...

At this point, I'll settle for Nevada. Even West Wendover.

 

[duncan.brown]

Yep, it’s West Wendover Will. Taken on our last road trip (from Santa Barbara, CA back to Syracuse, NY).

You’re up @D.B.Moody

 

[D.B.Moody]

My younger son picked up a Master's degree and a taste for kimchi in Syracuse. Dinosaur BBQ was interesting back then (1999). Anyway, here's another oversize icon:

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Ooh, that's one of those that if you've been there you know it instantly. But I'll give others a chance to play, I'm interested to see what other people come up with.

 

[John475]

I've never been there but I know where that is. The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao

 

[D.B.Moody]

It is Bilbao. I took that picture in 2017. You're up @John475.

 

[John475]

I wasn't there today, but I'm sure it looked something like this.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Okay, I live in Kirkwood and I was raised in Webster. Where did you got high school John475?
That's Art Hill in St. Louis, Missouri
And, yes, it snowed today.

 

[John475]

I'm about 30 miles south east of St Louis on the Illinois side New Athens.

 

[D.B.Moody]

So you can just pop over to Hopskeller in Waterloo for an excellent brew and wood-fired pizza any old time.
Protocol suggests you have to tell me I'm up.

EDIT: Seriously, @John475.

 

[John475]

Hopefully we open up soon. I'll do that.

 

[InspectorJon]

It is Bilbao. I took that picture in 2017. You're up @John475.

@John475 it's your turn to post a skyline picture.

 

[John475]

I did @D.B.Moody got it I guess he's up.

 

[D.B.Moody]

I was here in 2010:

 

[Pkrd]

Baldwin street in Dunedin NZ. The worlds steepest street, some Welsh might disagree though.

 

[D.B.Moody]

Yes, it is, and I'm glad you named the city this time. You're up @Pkrd.

 

[Pkrd]

Here's an easy one from a few weeks ago.

 

[bruce_the_loon]

I doubt it's right and if not, I've exhausted the list of Pacific Northwest ferry terminals I've visited that resemble this one.

Looks kind of, but almost completely unlike Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.

 

[Pkrd]

Nope.

 

[Pkrd]

Actually I thought that it would look nice up there at sunset so hiked back up there on my way through this week. Dragged my 12 year old daughter along.
We were just about at the top and I could here some talking so made some noise myself... which gave the young lass posing up there enough time to throw a jacket on.
The too old for her photographer was quite peeved at our arrival but I hung around innocently until the magic light was gone. My daughter had no idea what was going on.

 

[D.B.Moody]

I like the story with the picture.
