crossing one off my bucket list

Dinsdale, Wednesday, 17 February 2021 20:03 (five years ago)

ha nice one, I have looked at a ton of train-themed murals today

rob, Wednesday, 17 February 2021 20:04 (five years ago)

good work!

The second mural depicts Cabo Verde, the first mural is a depiction of Boston

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 00:04 (five years ago)

(unless it's a mural depicting a completely different place, which just seems too mean of cherry blossom)

but OK, I get it, big Cap Verdean community

Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 00:43 (five years ago)

My northeast US seaboard general vibe was right, at least.

This one will likely be easy for a few people.

Bridgetown, Barbados?

Sven Vath's scary carpet (Neil S), Thursday, 18 February 2021 10:32 (five years ago)

lol, yes. Well done.

Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Thursday, 18 February 2021 10:40 (five years ago)

if you recognise it's a cricket ground you're in business with that one

Sven Vath's scary carpet (Neil S), Thursday, 18 February 2021 10:40 (five years ago)

and it's on my list of cricket grounds to visit!

how do we do with ports?

Think it's Trieste? Looks European so got a top 10 of Europe's largest freight ports and did a gis of each, Trieste came in 8th

or something, Thursday, 18 February 2021 11:37 (five years ago)

(not that I got that! Just going off your answer, I was going to guess maybe Genoa

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 11:54 (five years ago)

Trieste has the same yellow cranes also

nashwan, Thursday, 18 February 2021 12:14 (five years ago)

yes, well done!

Sven Vath's scary carpet (Neil S), Thursday, 18 February 2021 12:23 (five years ago)

I heard everyone likes murals:

Qom, Iran?

Sven Vath's scary carpet (Neil S), Thursday, 18 February 2021 13:08 (five years ago)

Not Qom.

varanasi, india

Jibe, Thursday, 18 February 2021 13:16 (five years ago)

it's the varanasi junction railway station https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varanasi_Junction_railway_station

Jibe, Thursday, 18 February 2021 13:21 (five years ago)

Looking pretty chilly out there

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 13:21 (five years ago)

Jibe is correct!

Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Thursday, 18 February 2021 13:24 (five years ago)

xp maybe. In my limited experience, Indians will dress like that as soon as the temperature drops below 10

rob, Thursday, 18 February 2021 13:30 (five years ago)

Ooooh I like this pace :) more more more

Another relatively easy one, though i have artlessly obscured two of the most Googleable clues.

Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:11 (five years ago)

Almost certainly a college campus with the football stadium the structure in front. Looks like Stanford to me, it certainly has those tall palms along the side of roads bordering big lawns.

Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:41 (five years ago)

The red color is right for Stanford too.

Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:42 (five years ago)

I don't think Stanford Stadium is that dumpy, although I don't think I've ever walked next to the stadium.

It looks more like Brazil to me, but I have no feeling for where (I have traveled rather little there).

All cars are bad (Euler), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:50 (five years ago)

Not Stanford (only one BMW amid subcompact economy hatchbacks). Looks more tropical.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 18 February 2021 16:52 (five years ago)

What an interesting thing on the left. Looks like a pavilion of some sort, reminds me of Venice Biennale (but isn't that)

flamboyant goon tie included, Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:10 (five years ago)

Not Stanford (only one BMW amid subcompact economy hatchbacks)

those might be the humanities professors' cars

Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:42 (five years ago)

Whats the tall thing to the left of the two trees on the left? Sort of looks like a floodlight?

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:49 (five years ago)

Ah, looks like thats already covered

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:52 (five years ago)

Do stadiums in the US have seating go right up like that? Cars don't feel right for US, South America feels a better bet

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:55 (five years ago)

small colleges sometimes have stadiums like that

treeship., Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:57 (five years ago)

Yeah that totally looks like a US college football stadium to me

Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 18 February 2021 17:58 (five years ago)

It's hard to shake the idea it's California, but it's also p modest looking for a US campus venue for nearly any sport. Plus I'm struggling to think of an English word ending in -cial that would make sense as the last word of the name of that building on the left, whereas in, say, Spanish "ciencia social" would be logical

rob, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:02 (five years ago)

yeah I suppose a small liberal arts college could have a dinky entrance like that

rob, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:02 (five years ago)

btw "brutalist football stadium" is kind of a fun gis

rob, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:06 (five years ago)

I thought i had this for a second in Rio.

Its not Rio

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:07 (five years ago)

Flamengo made sense for a moment but no

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:12 (five years ago)

Next guess was Curitiba but absolutely no on that one

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:13 (five years ago)

Got it, I think

cherry blossom, Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:15 (five years ago)

damn

Dusty Benelux (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:17 (five years ago)

Thuogh blurred, I can tell the license plates shapes/colors are definitely not USA.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:17 (five years ago)

always quite fancied going to rosario

Dusty Benelux (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 18 February 2021 18:18 (five years ago)

Marcelo Biela stadium
