Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[bracconiere]

Well it is in the tropics. My friend went there before the airport opened in 2017 (after something of a saga, see the Wiki article) so did it the old way - 5 days by sea from South Africa, each way. Another of those fascinating little dots of land.

Hah - I thought it was Mostar bridge but had to check - it was briefly quite famous in Europe during the Balkan war.

(gotta admit i used google, and the fact there was an arrow tower.....)

 

[tracer bullet]

brac's up. I thought that would take a little longer.

 

[bracconiere]

hope this isn't too basic, or obscure...

 

[bracconiere]

ok, a hint it's one of the biggest caves.....hard to get to.....

 

[pvpeacock]

Vietnam?

 

[bracconiere]

well very hot guess.....

 

[pvtpublic]

Son Doong cave?

 

[bracconiere]

you're still in vietnam.....so still close....

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Well if not Vietnam, let's say Thailand?

 

[bracconiere]

Well if not Vietnam, let's say Thailand?

nope, to keep this moving...i'll say wrong direction.....

 

[Pkrd]

Guilin, China?

 

[bracconiere]

Guilin, China?

and if i'm the one that has this wrong i'll be so embaressed.....

 

[pvtpublic]

Well, are the Kennedys taking a vacation?

 

[bracconiere]

Well, are the Kennedys taking a vacation?

[bruce_the_loon]

@bruce_the_loon you're up, and drinkin' and dancin'.....


(i was going to say that i don't know what xe mean, but knew that would be a give away)

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Sticking to the current theme, a little closer. It's a roofline, not skyline, but what the heck.

 

[Brewsmith]

Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico?

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico?

About as famous, but not North America.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

The ?tour guide is wearing a hat, a number of the tour party are wearing shorts - feels like we're in the tropics?

Don't seem to be any Asians in the tour party, it's hard to see but they all look white or ?Hispanic? So unlikely to be Asia unless it's of particular interest to Caucasians.

I'd thought maybe Mexico but not if it's not North America, and doesn't look quite right for the Yucatan in any case.

So....South America somewhere?

 

[bracconiere]

Zhi Jin Cave, china?

 

[beermanpete]

Batu Caves in Kuala Lumpur?

Nope, wrong continent

Again no, again wrong continent

[AndyInOregon]

Friouato Caves in Morocco?

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Friouato Caves in Morocco?

Correct continent, not the right caves though.

 

[AndyInOregon]

Correct continent, not the right caves though.

Ohhhhh, you're in South Africa. Probably some gorgeous place not too far from you.

 

[bracconiere]

[AndyInOregon]

Nobody would recognize where I was born lol. Backwoods in India. Good thing I didn't play next.

[cmac62]

Second thought is India.

 

[bracconiere]

Second thought is India.
