pop Posted November 30, 2012 Share #1702 Â Posted November 30, 2012 Not Corsica, either. Go west! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pop Posted November 30, 2012 Share #1704 Â Posted November 30, 2012 Now you're too far to the west. Hint: the place is not on an island. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olsen Posted November 30, 2012 Share #1705 Â Posted November 30, 2012 Is it somewhere along the French coast? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1706 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Yes, it's indeed on the French coast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1707 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hyeres? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1708 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Seems a SNCM ferry. Could it be Toulon then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share #1709 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Ah - the "ugliest ship of the line" which was "dismasted and forced to strike her colors and surrender" in Rosas Bay. I kind of recalled who Hornblower was but didn't recognize the ship's name. "Ugliest of the line" indeed. Â The location is not in Spain, either. The swimming expedition was on the French coast. Actually HH was more Cochrane than Nelson in the earlier books btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1710 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Neither Hyeres nor Toulon. The site is a bit more prominent than that, I'd venture to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pop Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1712 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Don't tell the inhabitants of the place shown that I said that, but it's not nice. Not Nice, either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olsen Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1713 Â Posted December 1, 2012 Villefranche-sur-Mer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted December 1, 2012 Share #1714 Â Posted December 1, 2012 No! No! Â It's a big city, although the picture does not suggest it. It's not Villefranche, charming as that place might be. Also, it's a fair distance to the west. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted December 2, 2012 Share #1715 Â Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) Marseille. found some pictures from the coast with this small island. This is the famous Chateau d'If? Edited December 2, 2012 by a.j.z Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted December 2, 2012 Share #1716 Â Posted December 2, 2012 My notes don't cover the chateau, but I think you're right. Anyway, Marseille it is. Â Congratulations and over to you, Andreas. Â Mark Twain had this to say about the people of Marseille: In Marseilles they make half the toilet soap we consume in America, but the Marseillaise only have a vague theoretical idea of its use, which they have obtained from books of travel.
