no.
closer to you

Charlie Koller · 2009-05-15 08:55:13

scotland?

jeffw · 2009-05-15 09:00:06

UK then... but that lonely tower does't ring a bell...

bacchus · 2009-05-15 09:14:31

i must admit that what you see is not extremely well known.
but the place is told to have something very special in it.
this is not in Scotland.

csmarkus · 2009-05-25 11:34:58

The "shaped-hill" search in google maps over the UK gave me a result. Does that search count as cheating? If so, don't read this:

Spoiler:
Glastonbury Tor?

bacchus · 2009-05-26 09:07:16

this is not cheating, as long as you stay within your maps browser
indeed, that's the Tor in Glastonbury, town which is known to have the legendary King Arthur's body in its grounds.
according to Marion Zimmer-Bradley, could correspond to the magical island of Avalon.
at least it's a remarkable place of long and mysterious history.
you're up the hill, druid csmarkus

csmarkus · 2009-05-26 14:29:44

Thanks bacchus!
Here is the link if other players want to explore it.

For a long time, I wanted to dig out something for that Godzilla head near the slider but all those efforts were in vain

Now an easy one... The country is not enough, the city is not enough, we are looking for the name of the street hosting this famous thing!

Charlie Koller · 2009-05-27 08:13:02

abbey road, london!

csmarkus · 2009-05-27 09:05:50

Yes it is Abbey Road and this is one of the most famous zebra crossings of the world. Why? Because of the Beatles. Details here. Google maps link here.

Your turn, Charlie.

Charlie Koller · 2009-06-01 08:47:55

thanks Marcus !

bacchus · 2009-06-02 14:31:49

Ponte di Rialto, on the Canal Grande in Venezia, Italia

Charlie Koller · 2009-06-02 15:43:17

im sorry i dont speak italian so i cannot agree or not with tour answer. please try again. And if you speak italian again, i will not hesitate to blacksheep you! (your turn bacchus )

bacchus · 2009-06-02 16:49:52

grazie mille
what's the name of that bridge, and in which city have i gone to visit it?

bacchus · 2009-06-10 19:46:29

i'm surprised, i would have said to be quite easy...
it's in a capital city.

csmarkus · 2009-06-25 20:13:46

I showed the picture to my wife and she had the answer immediately...

Karlův bridge, Prague.

bacchus · 2009-06-25 20:37:18

indeed
your wife is very wise, csmarkus ^^

csmarkus · 2009-06-26 22:44:50

Thanks bacchus, I'll forward the message to her.

Where are these golf balls and what are they used for?

Charlie Koller · 2009-06-28 08:54:41

Could it be a NASA trainning center or something ?

csmarkus · 2009-06-28 16:07:41

Yes it could!!!

But it's not.

bacchus · 2009-06-30 07:24:30

maybe it's to prevent some things to fly away so that people can see them... i'd go for a park with marvelous butterflies.

csmarkus · 2009-06-30 08:52:22

Much closer! You are right, one of its main functions is to keep inside what's inside. However, it's not for butterflies or other animals. And it's in the UK.

bacchus · 2009-06-30 13:39:31

but it doesn't look much like a depository for liquefied carbon dioxyde...
is it a place where they test growing plants under martian atmosphere? or in the view of terraforming?

csmarkus · 2009-06-30 20:26:33

Getting closer... But it's not related to Mars, it's an Earth project.

csmarkus · 2009-07-07 08:51:53

Come on, you don't need to go back to Adam and Eve to find this project.

glouton · 2009-07-08 18:20:43

It remembers me X-Files and some bees nut that's all...
