you're rather wide of the mark, Dutchy
I'd like to be there just now ...
so would i, walter. it's Caye Caulker, Belize, at the "split" to be precise, where the island was divided into north & south by hurricane Hattie in '61. your turn if you please, walter.
I'd like to be there just now ...
It's too late for me (especially re my connection difficulties)
Since my young techie friends are doing all the kitchen stuff, I think I will do a fun one.
Where am I?
Right, Dutchy. Just for fun can you name the city and the celebration?
New York, Macey's Thanks Giving Day Parade.

Where am I?
Hey, Dutchy. Those look like modern windmills used to generate electricity. U.S., California?
Your description is correct but not in California. US.
Well, I think I will try Germany, Dutchy, although I am tempted to go with the Netherlands.
The Netherlands is correct Letty, was only after the name of the country.
Ah, Dutchy. The Don Quixote type are more esthetic.
Where am I?
Europe?
(Will be away for a while)
Ok, Aussie. When you get back, it ain't Europe.
