The rock formation was (emphasize was) known as the Azure Window We saw it in April of 2016 A storm in April 2017 made it go away. The red dot in picture 2 is where we were standing in picture 1. So Sad!
The game started 21 threads ago with the alpha being the entrance to Malta's harbor in Valletta. Will the Azure Window be the Omega. Your call Fran

Zashin, mostly correct. I assume you meant Potter's. Good enough. And my buddy Sam whacking away at lobsters for that night's dinner!! I knew that was too easy. But since we land base on Anegada, virtually all of my vacation pics are from Anegada. You are up my friend.
Go Irish!!

I've got pictures of the same "whacking station" in different incarnations, so that was too easy; my last picture (pre-irma) shows somewhat smaller area for preparing the lobsters. I did mean Potter's...
So where is this?

Fred - "Fe" is the official designation for "iron" (from the Latin "ferrum"). But I did wear a pair of Iron Rangers this morning on my walk, which I gather come from that mountain range and iron mines in Minnesota... But that mountain range is on the wrong continent, there aren't many big hills in this area... but there are some major government offices in this city! I'll wait a bit and then post another image.

It is in Europe and not den Haag. I didn't check for other pictures since I thought this would be easy to guess and go quickly. Here's a heavily redacted image of a building in this city, which also happens to be the nation's capital.

That must have taken a while to edit! It's Brussels and those would have been the flags of all the EU countries. On further thought though it could be NATO HQ. Either way it is Brussels. I recognised the first photo but thought that was Berlin so didn't guess once you' ruled out Germany.
Mike - it is indeed Brussels, the capital of Belgium and of the European Union and I had to click the "smart eraser" in Photoshop a number of times to try to hide the flags flying in front the EU Headquarters building. All yours!
