Congratulations!
Looks like a winner to me!
Asturias might wait 24 hrs with confirmation out of an abundance of caution.
so you have some time too prepare the next challenge.

Looked at Bois Blanc island twice. How did I miss that little island on the end. Well done Mal!

Asturias56 26th Jan 2024 07:53

Malcom has it - Mackinac island . A rather nice spot - nice outside winter

You should always call ahead for transportation as "Motor vehicleswere restricted at the end of the nineteenth century because of concerns for the health and safety of the island's residents and horses after local carriage drivers complained that automobiles startled their horses. This ban continues to the present, with exceptions only for city emergency vehicles (ambulance, police cars and fire trucks), city service vehicles and snowmobiles in winter."

The British started the War in 1812 by invading and capturing the island before the Americans reaslised that war had been declared :E - they handed it back in 1815

Dawn or dusk?

rather bijou lamp post bottom right - Looks rather like Europe from the windows - just can't enhance it enough to read what looks like a sign on left hand edge of the picture

ea200 29th Jan 2024 09:08

Rubbish bin looks European and I believe the bowser says Total. French?

Self loading bear 30th Jan 2024 04:47

Yes Total
Yes European
Not French

chevvron 30th Jan 2024 05:22

Portimao.

Asturias56 30th Jan 2024 08:31

tower doesn't look right for Portimao - the challenge is at least one story higher - and instead of a rather nice fence in the challenge you have e bloody great strip of ARMCO in Portugal nor do the trees look right to me

somewhere further north - it has the feel of Wyk that Bear posted lasted year to me for some reason....................... looks terribly civilised

possibly Netherlands/Germany/Denmark

Self loading bear 30th Jan 2024 11:06

Germany
but not on the islands

Asturias56 30th Jan 2024 15:19
