pop Posted May 3, 2013 Share #12001 Posted May 3, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) The reflection in the window appears to be spelling what could possibly be LAITERIE which is French for Dairy. How or why this would be typical for the location I can not tell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

larsv Posted May 3, 2013 Share #12003 Posted May 3, 2013 Northern Germany is a sound advice! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsv Posted May 4, 2013 Share #12004 Posted May 4, 2013 Nocti Lux sent me a message with the correct answer, but has no photograph to follow up. My suggestion is to leave it to Nocti Lux, whether he would like to announce the solution and appoint one of the others for follow up with a next photo, or to leave the game running as is. Cheers Lars Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefans4 Posted May 4, 2013 Share #12005 Posted May 4, 2013 The reflection seems to read "ATLANTIC". Isn't there a hotel with that name somewhere in Northern Germany...? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubice Posted May 4, 2013 Share #12007 Posted May 4, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) There is a Hotel Atlantic in Hamburg - quite a famous one...... So - are we in Hamburg? Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsv Posted May 4, 2013 Share #12008 Posted May 4, 2013 Jan, we are in Hamburg. And The Atlantic is where I stayed for the week. It's on the outer Alster and quite beautiful. Your turn. Lars Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted May 5, 2013 Share #12009 Posted May 5, 2013 Thanks, Lars. I would like to know where we are and whose statue we are looking at.... Good luck, Jan Welcome, dear visitor!

vertekijker Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12010 Posted May 6, 2013 Hi Jan, looks like the Charles Bridge in Prague, but the figure? Jan Hus maybe? Just a guess. -------------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12011 Posted May 6, 2013 Frans, You are 90% correct and I grant you the next puzzle.... However, before you proceed, I will give you the oportunity to be 100% correct - the statue in front of the Charles Bridge is not that of Jan Hus but, of the Czech King and Roman Emperor Karel IV (Charles IV). So - we are not at Charles Bridge but where? This photo should give you a hint - what are these peaople looking at? Good luck Frans, Jan Welcome, dear visitor!

a.j.z Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12012 Posted May 6, 2013 I think I know but we wait for Frans, right? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12013 Posted May 6, 2013 Andreas, I did not ask for a specific location and Frans got two correct answers - Prague and Jan Hus. That should be enough to qualify him as the winner of this round but, as a friendly challenge I am making it slightly more difficult for him by asking for the specific locale. If he has been to Prague, he must have stood at this place, gazing upwards with his mouth open too...... They also serve a freshly rosted duck not too far from here - it is to die for!

stuny Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12014 Posted May 6, 2013 They're probably watching the clock with all the characters and movement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12015 Posted May 6, 2013 They're probably watching the clock with all the characters and movement. Thank you, Jan. Sorry I discovered this so late. But Stuart must have the right answer, it must be the famous astronomical clock. I suggest that you take over, Stuart. Cheers. --------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12016 Posted May 6, 2013 Frans, You have already been awarded the gold medal in my post 11995, I just gave you an extra challenge. And this extra challenge was for you only, you solved it and you're next. So go ahead! Jan P.S. Come to think of it, I probably don't have any photos of the clock as I am always drawn to faces mesmerized by the apostels moving through the clock's windows....

vertekijker Posted May 6, 2013 Share #12017 Posted May 6, 2013 Dear Jan, I much appreciate the honor! I'll look for something. I too shot most of my pictures there of things happening around that clock, rather than of the clock itself. Will be back soon. -------------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubice Posted May 7, 2013 Share #12020 Posted May 7, 2013 I believe this to be the Kogetsudai Sand Mound at the Ginkaku-ji Temple....... In Japan, close to Kyoto..... I hope I won't have to solve any extra challenges, Frans..... Cheers, Jan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
