JaiDee Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 I will name 3 US cities; which one is furthest south, then 2nd, then which one is the most northern one? Jacksonville San Diego Honolulu Quote Link to comment
Patrick Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Furthest south Honolulu I think Jacksonvilleis in Florida, if so it would be further south than San Diego, (hopefully). Furthest North San Diego Quote Link to comment
Patrick Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 JaiDee has given me an idea: Rank these three cities furthest north: Edinburgh Moscow Copenhagen. Quote Link to comment
SiamSam Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Copenhagen Edinburgh Moscow Quote Link to comment

pdogg Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 For Lefty's pic I'll guess Iceland. Quote Link to comment
JaiDee Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Furthest south Honolulu I think Jacksonvilleis in Florida, if so it would be further south than San Diego, (hopefully). Furthest North San Diego Patrick nailed this one...... Honolulu is at 27 degrees longitude, JAX is at 30 and San Diego is it 32. Quote Link to comment
Patrick Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Not Copenhagen, Edinburgh, Moscow, Sam Quote Link to comment

Wildrover Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I will go with Herat in Afghanistan. 2nd choice; Muscat. On the right track with the first one JD, part of the same empire. The monument in the pic survived even the most unwelcome of visitors oul Genghis im pretty sure i know the answer,but i wont spoil it for anyone who wants to have a guess...i remember you told me you had visited there last summer......it's one city i have always dreamed of visiting..... Cheers mate, hope all is well with you. Although the city is one of two famous ones in that country and it may be the other one that you are talking about Quote Link to comment
Wildrover Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Very close BB, same country Here is Samarkand, oasis for travellers for centuries...according to Alexander the great the melons there are the finest in the world, the size of horse's heads... he wasnt wrong Quote Link to comment
Wildrover Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 The first two pics are of the Kalyan minaret in Bukhara, Uzbekistan - many a person where unceremoniously thrown off the top of it over the centuries. Wondering can anyone put a name on this cracking historic city Quote Link to comment
JaiDee Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 Last 3 pics; Havana? Quote Link to comment
Wildrover Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Howdy JD. its not Havana but the seafront is certainly a dead ringer for the Malecon Quote Link to comment
JaiDee Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 San Juan, P.R.? Quote Link to comment

Wildrover Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Not Beirut or Buenos Aires lads but Cadiz, many say it's the oldest city in Europe at around 3,000 years old They used it to stand in for Havana in Die Another Day, Halle Berry and all that. It gets overlooked by many visitors as there are a lot of heavyweight tourist destinations in Andalucia Quote Link to comment
