Phil U Posted September 4, 2012 Share #10646 Posted September 4, 2012 Andreas you are 100% correct. Over to you, Sir! Stuart - the region is very influenced by Tibet and the Dalai Lama is a regular visitor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.j.z Posted September 4, 2012 Share #10647 Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks Phil! I have never been there but it looked very much like the North of India or not too far away. This one should not be too difficult Where was I, what is the name of the building in front of me and what was behind me? Welcome, dear visitor!

a.j.z Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10649 Posted September 5, 2012 Stuart, correct! What I meant is the building that mirrors the Bastion, which is the Hilton, but it is clear that you have the right place (St Matthias would be to the left). Your turn!

stuny Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10650 Posted September 5, 2012 Andreas - Thank you. For this one I want to know the country and what made you pick that country as the answer.

a.j.z Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10651 Posted September 5, 2012 Somehow Namibia comes to my mind also because auf the type of the tree, which I think I have somewhere and this is all the reason I can give Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

larsv Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10654 Posted September 5, 2012 I don't think it is either Tanzania or Kenia, as I have not seen this type of hut. Correct? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10655 Posted September 5, 2012 Gary - Correct tree. Lars - Correct, not Tanzania nor Kenya. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil U Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10656 Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Edited answer: I thought Australia at first but changed to Madagascar - because that particular type of baobab tree is native to Madagascar?

stuny Posted September 5, 2012 Share #10657 Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Correct, Phil, and over to you. Of the 8 species of boabab, seven are in Madagascar (6 of which are endemic), with one on the African mainland and one in Australia (the boab).
