A Coruna? Valencia?

perth?

(not the one in scotland)
None of those. I could post a suitably gritty street scene, if you'd prefer to guess from micro rather than macro.
― Ismael Klata, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:03 (sixteen years ago)
i thought maybe it was perth earlier, but it doesn't seem to match the google maps aerial. then i checked all 100K+ cities in new zealand, no go. can you tell us which hemisphere this is in? i've already spent way too much time on this one.
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:05 (sixteen years ago)
yeah post that street scene
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:06 (sixteen years ago)
Yeah, I've just been googling round European ports with no joy.
― ailsa, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:07 (sixteen years ago)
durban?
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:09 (sixteen years ago)
that looks like a rugby ground to me
the buildings almost look too modern to be a developed european city, plus the stadium in the lower left of the second picture looks like a soccer stadium now that i think about it. so now i think this is def. south america and not def. north america like i thought before.
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:09 (sixteen years ago)
(yes, or "rugby")
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:10 (sixteen years ago)
is it kingston
― harbl, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:10 (sixteen years ago)
I thought it was an athletics ground or a v. old football stadium

damn it
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:18 (sixteen years ago)
Correct ailsa, but caek gets the points!
― Ismael Klata, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:18 (sixteen years ago)
I googled MTN, found they were South African, and went straight for Durban on google maps
(the ground is a cricket ground, btw)
― ailsa, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:19 (sixteen years ago)
Sorry for postponing your moment of triumph, caek, but the street scene picture took about ten minutes to upload - I was bloody well posting it after that wait.
― Ismael Klata, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:20 (sixteen years ago)
Oh, I never even spotted caek saying Durban. FAIL!
― ailsa, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:21 (sixteen years ago)
hahah
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:23 (sixteen years ago)
someone else post one
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:24 (sixteen years ago)
i'm on dialup, too slow to go looking for a good one
durban was a really good one, btw.

That's beautiful. I'm bowing out now though, I've got work to get on with - you pesky kids have already cost me an hour.

likewise ismael! and excellent work, caek. i had tried cape town after abandoning canada (???) but then went elsewhere...
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:29 (sixteen years ago)
ailsa yours can be 107 and mine'll be 106.
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:30 (sixteen years ago)
106 almost looks like bristol, but the topography is wrong and they are driving on the right.
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:31 (sixteen years ago)
omg yes the return of my favorite thread ever wahhhh
― 69, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:32 (sixteen years ago)
107 looks like it's in england (e.g. villa in the bottom right, smallish size of fields in the background), but i don't recognize the river at all, so i guess it's not. hmmm.
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:34 (sixteen years ago)
106 athens?
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:35 (sixteen years ago)
107 is Inverness. And I am bowing out now.
― Ismael Klata, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:35 (sixteen years ago)
haha
106 looks Baltic or Scandinavian. Gdansk, maybe?
Ismael, correct, I have no better imagination that to use my home town!
― ailsa, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:36 (sixteen years ago)
yeah, athens was nuts. that's northern europe.
― caek, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:37 (sixteen years ago)
106 nope not athens. gdansk is a gdanswer but you're off by over a thousand miles.
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:38 (sixteen years ago)

― 69, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:39 (sixteen years ago)
oslo?
ariston makes washing machines and stuff
― max, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:39 (sixteen years ago)
already tried that, i think its a dead end
― max, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:40 (sixteen years ago)
bollocks. Gdansk has some nice cranes as well though. I love this thread.
Ariston = electrical manufacturer
― ailsa, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:40 (sixteen years ago)
ARISTON is some heating company. not traceable to my location, gumshoes! i checked.
not oslo, not even scandinavian.
― iiiijjjj, Monday, 30 November 2009 21:40 (sixteen years ago)
that hill in the top of the frame with houses on it seems distinctive
