Where am I - Travel Game II.

I knew you would, and you're right. I love it too, for many reasons - The Nine, the Campo and its history, my walks around the city on different visits, the art can make me cry..
For some reason I bonded on Siena and not Florence.

So, I've been going through all my stuff trying to cull, and one of the items I'm giving a hard stare at is all my photos. This one was on the "dining room table", aka work table, when I went to look and see if any of the photos that were on the table would do for the travel game. Since it's my photo, it just calls out Siena to me.. but there were few clues in the photo for everybody else. I was betting people are used to me picking a place in italy a good percentage of the time when I play this, but eurocelticyankee didn't know that.

Anyway, it's a scene from a passaggiata in April.

I also love the whole area around Siena - we stayed a week in a village called Strove over by Monteriggioni..

Me too! I have such fond memories of Siena and therefore it always will
be special to me.

So now I will check for another place....

Where am I?

I'm going to go read but I might be checking later.

Amsterdam, Holland?

Aan de Amsterdamse grachten
Heb ik heel mijn hart voor altijd verpand
Amsterdam vult mijn gedachten
Als de mooiste stad in ons land


(Actually, that song is only slightly connected to the house in CJ's photo.)

Yes Dutchy you're right - it's in Amsterdam. The Anne Frank house to be precise. Your turn, Dutchy!

Wim Sonneveld wrote that song. Looks like I'm on the right track Walter.

Shouldn't it be North Holland? (You were born in Gelderland? )

Been there ofcourse hence it was an easy one. Will be back in a second with my submission.

You're a little pedantic Walter but you're right if you want to be precise. btw. Amersfoort is not in Gelderland but Utrecht!

Where am I?

Such a beautiful country and such an ugly waterfront -it's a disgrace, isn't it...

San Alfonso Del Mar resort in Chile

Well done CJ, spot on. I didn't think anybody would be looking for Chile first up.

Well, I looked for ugly hotel with humungous pool and there it was.

Where am I now? It's historically tied to the Dutch and Germans.....





As you can see from the vegetation, it's definitely not the UK.

A very historical place indeed.

Fort Gross Friedrichsburg, Princes Town, Ghana:

Yes, that's it! You found it quickly, Francis....

Your turn!

Talking about historical places and even pre-historic:

Where am I?

Are you in the US of A?

Are these ruins of native Indian cultures?
