Re: Game time part 13 jphart #241095 12/01/2020 10:31 AM Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 2,667 Likes: 14 St. Lucia Zanshin Traveler Zanshin Traveler Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 2,667 Likes: 14 St. Lucia My first thought was the Montreux Jazz Festival (I can't believe that they "boo'd" Stevie Ray Vaughn off stage the first time he performed there). I'm going to stick with that for lack of a definite location, but the mountainous background makes me think of the Alps and Switzerland. I just don't think Montreux is big enough for that many churches Last edited by Zanshin; 12/01/2020 10:43 AM.

With that many churches it has to be a bigger town. While the picture doesn't ring a bell, I am going to guess Salzburg in Austria due to the history, scenery and size. I haven't been back to Salzburg in many years but it could be a match...

I have a couple of places in mind, but first guess is former GDR and Leipzig (I don't even know if this city is in GDR)

It is not in Leipzig, nor is the city in what used to be the DDR (or GDR, same thing)

I'm seeing the same issue but what I don't get is that sometimes one post will be correct while another before or after it will be incorrect. Also, the time has on occasion changed from correct to incorrect and vice versa. Oh well, if someone Googles too early I don't care, it's no skin off my back, only a game. By the way, with the statue/monument to Garibaldi I'm thinking somewhere in Sicily. Last edited by Fran; 12/03/2020 08:38 AM. [color:"red"]FRAN[/color] "Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late"
