The cruise ship (small) i worked called in here a few times, its a very colourful village, even a kids tv show in the UK called Balamory uses the village as a backdrop. I could never understand why they didn't sell local Toby jugs.

I am also running out of different places pictures

Sleepychef, I'm not sure if you're giving clues to others or what as you obviously know the correct name. I'll give you the choice of identifying or letting others use your great clues.

Clues

I am running out of different location picture

I know it as well but right out of suitable photos so holding off. Didn't recognise it until the colourful cottages appeared.

According to the TTOL time meter on my machine, someone should be able to legally use Google and Sleepychef's clues to figure this out.

Tobermory Bay

Adrian,

Indeed, the lovely town is Tobermory on the Isle of Mull, Scotland. I would love to go back there and in the meantime, you are up!

Fred, it looks like a great place to visit someday! And apparently it's a Bing Crosby song!
Here is the next photo...

Ben Hur

sleepychef--why don't you just say where it is to end this one and then we'll invite anyone to post a picture..

Circus Maximus, Rome , its where they filmed the race in Ben Hur ...

well thats my guess

Yes, sleepychef, you're correct. I thought more people would recognize this.

Yes I loved the moive, just watched it again, its an easter thing for me.

Easy one now

Cow Wreck?

Cow Wreck and Desne!!

Cow Wreck and Robert lol

Fred you are up

Peter, I looked at the pic from my phone. Sorry Robert!

I think you might have mistaken me for Fred, no biggie, he's a good guy.

This might be an easy one as well for some folks, like Carol. Where is this island?

I don't know but I'd like to go there!

Thanks Fran,

Haven't been here but trying to guess Caribbean with that long mountain backdrop in the background, I'll guess Guatemala.

Sorry Fran

Not Guatemala but you're in the right region. A bit under the weather tonight, will check back in the AM.

Fran--I have no idea. Looks cool though!

Carol, I thought you might have seen it on one of your many cruises.

We went through the Panama Canal once and we took one cruise that stopped at Cartagena, several to Aruba, but otherwise, most have been pretty much in the Caribbean, not so far south.

Maybe this will help a little. This city is not too far away.

Aruba? The private island of the downtown hotel? Name/chain I’ve forgotten, shuttle boat goes into the lobby

No, not Aruba, much further west. Fred was in the right region. The island is around 7-8 miles or so out from the city in the second photo.

I haven't been here, but I'll take another guess and say Costa Rica? Don't know the name of the island wherever it is.

No, not Costa Rica. Not sure I really expect folks to name the island, name the city and you'll get the country where the island is located.

Panama City?

No, not Panama

I think we've reached the 18 hour mark so google away.

Belize City is the City - do not know name of isle.

Belize is what I was looking for. You're up.

By the way, the island is English Caye and is at the start of the deep water channel for ships heading to Belize City.

where

St Croix?

Good guess, but this island is southeast of St. Croix.

This sugar mill stopped commercial operation in 1947 - one of last operating.

Barbados?

Yes - you got it - it is the Morgan Lewis Sugar Mill in Barbados - now a museum.
