Where on Earth?

[Finn]

Hotel del Coronado in Coronado, California.

We saw it in Some like it Hot

^Is it in Prague?

I don't think anyone ever guessed this, so I'll put it out of it's entirely theoretical misery: this is Ottawa, looking west along the Ottawa River, with the skyline of Gatineau visible. I'd left it alone until now because I felt it would be cheating to "guess" it.

Here's one:

^ Wild guess: Siena?

Still, no guesses on this? It's a Registered National Landmark.

That's Garden of the Gods Park in Colorado Springs. I haven't been there but it looks very scenic.

It screamed Arches NP to me, but its wayyyy too green to be Utah.

Yay, SmoothieX! Yes, it's Garden of the Gods, one of my favorite places that we visited on our trip to Denver. I thought it was wonderful.

Somewhere in Quebec?

Rothenburg-ob-der-Tauber, Germany?

Correct! The western town gate.

 

[Canadave]

Somewhere in Quebec?

Yup. It is somewhere in that province.

This is a really cute thread. I have no idea where any of these places are (except for the Coronado one), but I'm loving the pics!

Quebec City, I could tell by the fenuncular.

Budapest, Chain Bridge.

And here I thought Robert Maxwell would be first in on that one. And don't forget about the Royal Palace in the background.

I'd been ignoring this thread for a few days, that's why I didn't see it.

 

[Mary Ann]

Where are these standing stones?

 

[judge alba]

Aylesbury? or avebury not sure how it's spelt

 

[DimesDan]

Where are these standing stones?

Avebury. I was there at the weekend and it's a beautiful place. The pub is rather nice aswell.

That's ok. We're ignoring you, so....

Taken on a recent trip. Hint...this isn't a natural lake. It also forms a portion of the border between two states.

Lake Havasu?

 

[SmoothieX]

Lake Mead, separating AZ and NV?

 

[Captain Ice]

Smoothie hit is on the head. It's Lake Mead from the Nevada side.

From the contour of the mountains in the background I had that much figured but, other than somewhere in the vicinity of Bullhead City, I haven't been able to work out the spot from which the pic was taken.

Argh, I know you've posted a pic of this before but I only vaguely recall the location.
