doubice Posted March 9, 2013 Share #11685 Posted March 9, 2013 Carribean? Yes. Makes me think of Portugal, and a bust of one of their explorers. No? Doug Doug, think harder - no to Portugal, yes to an explorer. Not Portuguese though.... Good luck, Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubice Posted March 9, 2013 Share #11693 Posted March 9, 2013 Mainland or island? Island. A Spanish conquistador, Jan? Ken. Yes a Spanish conquistador but, not Cortés. Getting warmer..... Good luck, Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcoombs Posted March 9, 2013 Share #11694 Posted March 9, 2013 DeSoto, in Florida? Doug Whoops - just saw you mention island. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsy Posted March 9, 2013 Share #11695 Posted March 9, 2013 Bit of a guess but is it Santiago de Cuba and a bust of Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted March 10, 2013 Share #11696 Posted March 10, 2013 Definitely a guess and unfortunately, an incorrect one in both cases.... However, and here is the first clue, Cuba is not too far from here. Good luck, Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsv Posted March 10, 2013 Share #11697 Posted March 10, 2013 Haiti, Jamaica, Dominican? So frustrating, so familiar! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted March 10, 2013 Share #11698 Posted March 10, 2013 Neither of the above.... The statue is looking directly at the western tip of Cuba, about 200km's away..... Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsy Posted March 11, 2013 Share #11699 Posted March 11, 2013 Bust of Francisco Hernández de Córdoba on Isla Mujeres? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest suilvenman Posted March 11, 2013 Share #11700 Posted March 11, 2013 Bust of Francisco Hernández de Córdoba on Isla Mujeres? After Terry and Julie Eggers, Jan must be only the third person in the world to have taken this photograph (or so it seems after endless Googling hours of Jack Sparrow and Caribbean beach busts). Well done. Ken. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
