It has been a while since I've seen a thread like this - the rules are simple: attempt to identify the location of the last posted picture in the thread. Once the picture poster confirms the first correct responder that person then gets to add a (sailing-related) picture to the thread and the game continues.
Since I'm no good at this type of guesswork my only chance of getting a picture into the thread is by starting it off with the following picture:
You guys are convincing me. After all I guess I will sail to Brazil some day. Can one of you send me on a PM the reference to the best pilot book for the Brasilian coast?
Give me 30 minutes to get the other computer on. It's batts flat and I need sun on the solar panels.
On the last photo Arraial, it's very close to Rio, in fact if you look at Rio and follow the coast south east to the corner, it's right there.
I was there about twn years ago on a boat when we sailed the Brazilian coast.
It's one of the most attractive spots you can imagine. The people in the town are just amazingly friendly. And it's a bus ride to Rio.
Having the boat in Rio is one of the amazing experiences, but the pollution really is hell.
Correct!!!
The Temple of Artemis is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and cruisers can easily see it on the coast of Turkey near Selcuk.
It is very close to Ehpesus, or Efes, however FEW people ever stop and see this Wonder.
The only other of the Seven Wonders of the World that can bee seen is the Great Pyramid of Cheops in Egypt... Hence the hint like a pyramid.
The other Wonders are all destroyed.
In ancient times it looked better than the one and a half columns still standing
By the way, the first hint photo is of Nicolle sitting on a communal toilet in Ephuses. The city was built by the ancient Greeks and then taken over by the Romans. As you know the Romans invented the cistern, and the dunny, but really made big when they invented the Multi-Holer. Just imagine have your morning constitutional with all your mates!
Love the applause and cheering but I'm on my way to Bangkok and must bow out. Thanks anyway. ps not kennels, we breed genetically modified glaucus winged gulls for the soon to be built effluent plant in Victoria harbour..
Well - since I responded to the "open picture" state of the thread first, here goes...
I spent some time working outside of Antibes and thought I'd post a picture of Port Vauban, but every picture I have and those I found on the web are instantly identifiable and not even a bit of a challenge, unlike this picture:
Sorry can you be a bit more clear about this? This means it is possible that you have not been there or that we can post pictures that are not ours but have to have been at the place?
Paulo.. I think we all agreed that it need not be your own pic, nor that you need to have been there yourself in the interests of keeping this going.. It need be a sailing/boating related place, that's about it.
As to the current target.. Northern Hemisphere, not EU..... North America?
I haven't been there, but if I had it should look like this.
