My ex's sister and her gf used to live in one of those blocky buildings... The area was once poor, but for the last 10+ years they've been building those kind of modernist houses theres, so now it's quite posh.

I tried to narrow my choices by looking in the map for coastal cities in Islamic Africa with estuary-like features.

I get the feeling that collardio gelatinous must be an excellent test-taker and game strategist.

does a town of 13,000 people count as a city?

Nicely done, lion!

xp I wondered the same thing (about its "city-ness"), and this one's definitely pushing the envelope, but I did see it described as "a port city" in one place and as the "easternmost city in Russia" in another, so since I basically just wanted y'all to see the whimsical colors, I went for it

Utterly delicious, beautiful city. I was there during a teacher's strike that ended in some pretty tragic violence. People were wonderful.
