Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[pvpeacock]

Not sure where the Country of Adobe is, but not Photoshop, Adobe. Yes, this is a real place. While I didn't take the picture, I've been there many times.

Looks like the INN
Whittier, Alaska.

 

[pvpeacock]

Whittier, Alaska it is! Anchorage's gateway to Prince William Sound. You're up CKuhns.

 

[CKuhns]

Shouldn't be too hard....

Time for a clue...

Steppin' away from my computer for awhile and I'm 99.99% sure I'm right about this ^ so here's the next one... this might be kinda hard so I'll drop a hint in awhile if nobody gets it

 

[pvpeacock]

I don't see a picture, so my guess is "nowhere"

Not sure what's going on but HBT isn't allowing me to show a full embedded image unless I'm just being dumb here..

Fixed it, sorry about that. I had to upload the picture from my phone for it to work though - HBT wasn't liking the computer upload for some reason.

 

[CKuhns]

You are NOT 99.99% sure but are 100% correct @TheMadKing!!!

Nicely Done

Hint: the building with the tan arched roof in the top right corner is unique to this city.

Apparently I killed the thread...

 

[duncan.brown]

Apparently HBT is not sending me alerts when this thread is updated any more...

Ok, I’ll guess Jacksonville, FL?

Nope, wrong continent

Another hint because this is indeed a difficult one. This is a high elevation city closer to the equator than Jacksonville FL, but still in the Northern Hemisphere

How about Caracas, Venezuela?

 

[TheMadKing]

How about Caracas, Venezuela?

Nope very close to the right latitude but still wrong continent

 

[duncan.brown]

Is it Nairobi?

 

[TheMadKing]

Is it Nairobi?

Nope but right continent

Addis Abba, from the Hilton. Two things, you're a degree and a half less North than Caracas, and secondly, you know how difficult it is to pick out tennis courts from Google Earth at a reasonable search altitude.

Well done! You're spot on

I spent a week in Addis a couple years back for work. Very nice people, and the best coffee I've ever had

Ahem.. I believe that means you're up for posting a photo

 

[bruce_the_loon]

Give a lazy, working-from-home, beer brewing and drinking chap a couple of minutes to find a picture.

Not visted here yet, but want to go one day.

 

[duncan.brown]

Djenné, Mali

Ding. The next time I win, I should lean out my window and take a random shot of a row of houses to make it more of a challenge.

Your turn.

 

[duncan.brown]

Here you go, then...

 

[3 Dawg Night]

Dallas, Texas

 

[duncan.brown]

Right country, wrong state.

 

[duncan.brown]

Any guesses or are people stumped? I'll post a clue tomorrow.
