Waikiki Beach?

Possible at the "Pink Palace of the Pacific" or "Royal Hawaiian Hotel"

girldetective 07-31-2008 10:11 AM

Yes yes yes! I love it here - walking down the street with swimsuits and three-piece suits, surf boards and briefcases, all mixed up.

Even with the fever you win, TM. Youre good. Where you off to?

BadNick 07-31-2008 10:49 AM

Can't we just hang around here and surf for a while?

Way to go Tul...hope you're feeling better.

Tully Mars 07-31-2008 11:17 AM

Thanks for everyone's concern, feeling better all the time.

I stayed next door to the "Royal" at the Sheraton for a couple weeks once. Nice, but stay away from the north end of Waikiki, esp the Hobron dist. Some one tried to car jack me there in the drive thru of a Jack-N-Box one night.

OK, GO!

girldetective 07-31-2008 11:54 AM

ItWasMe 08-01-2008 07:02 PM

Does the USA have a military base the country you are in?

And how come Jewels and I don't get a "it's a girl my lord!" when we enter the room, like girldetective does? Hmm? Hmm?

Tully Mars 08-02-2008 05:04 AM

Land locked country?

Or has that been asked?

BadNick 08-02-2008 08:13 AM

OK, as the self-appointed summarizer, I can say that we're in an urban location somewhere in Europe but not in Scotland, France, Belgium, Czech Fepublic, or a Scandia country, nor someplace where Spanish is the primary language, and apparently there is no U.S. military base in this country...so obviously Germany is out...etc.


unc, are you in Denmark?

ok, hint...the city is in one of the five countries which, when one adds their total land mass, would be slightly smaller than the king ranch in texas...

BadNick 08-02-2008 01:29 PM

Are you in the Principality of Liechtenstein? ...city of Schaan?

uncle phil 08-02-2008 01:41 PM

Nice work Jete,

Jetée 08-02-2008 03:15 PM

Wait, what went down? Wait for Nick to come back. :D

I was just adding some colorful perspective to the page and game. I don't want to strong-arm BadNick of his win. Also, I might need time to acclimate to the intracacies of this rapidly-popular game.

uncle phil 08-02-2008 03:49 PM

BadNick 08-02-2008 10:03 PM

hey Jetée, haven't noticed you around lately...nice to have you back...I almost want to let you have it to celebrate, but I don't want to spoil you ;)


OK folks, where in the world am I this time?

Jetée 08-02-2008 10:12 PM

Does your country contain a DisneyWorld?

girldetective 08-02-2008 11:11 PM

Does this country have a monarchy?

Jetée 08-03-2008 12:25 AM

Has the United States Navy visited your country within the last decade?

uncle phil 08-03-2008 03:56 AM

northern hemisphere?

BadNick 08-03-2008 07:57 AM

Damn good questions...you're really narrowing it down fast...

YES to all of the above.

Tully Mars 08-03-2008 08:08 AM

Japan

BadNick 08-03-2008 08:14 AM

Tully Mars 08-03-2008 08:19 AM

Hiroshima

BadNick 08-03-2008 08:23 AM

not Hiroshima....but like the Hiroshima Memorial site, where I am is also World Heritage Site.

Tully Mars 08-03-2008 08:28 AM

Kyoto?

BadNick 08-03-2008 08:33 AM

Not Nagasaki.

While I'm sure those two places have historically older associations than WWII, the place I am has a more ancient heritage than the last 1000 years or so.

Tully Mars 08-03-2008 08:39 AM

Nara?

BadNick 08-03-2008 08:50 AM

You got it, Tul. I'm in Nara.

The "Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara" include 6 temples: Todaiji, Kasuga-Taisha, Kofukuji, Yakushiji, Toshodaiji and Gangouji. Todaiji is a noteworthy example, visited by Japanese students on school trips and tourists from all over the world. This temple was built by order of Emperor Shomu (ruling from 724 to 749) in order to protect the country. The 14.7-meter-high Great Buddha in the Daibutsuden (Great Buddha Hall) symbolizes Nara, and his pose of holding up the palm of his right hand to the front while placing his left hand on his knee with the palm upwards means that he gives strength to the people with his right hand while promising to grant their wishes with his left. The main body of the Buddha has been repaired many times over the years, but the lotus petal part used as the foundation and both legs are as they were when first made. The building, reconstructed in the Edo era, is the largest-scale ancient wooden building in the world.

No, Malaysia's pretty north of where I am.

I'm south of the Solomons, north of New Zealand and east of Australia.

I'm likely soaking up sun on a beach speaking French* to a bunch of other tourists.




*No, I can't actually speak French, but I'm also not really at this location, so?

uncle phil 08-03-2008 03:31 PM
