So, you're in Colombia.
|
My bad... South America. So for that I'll help.
I'm in Colombia... in a place where a famous person once lived. |
Shakira in baranquilla, colombia?
|
are you in Barranquilla, Colombia ...birthplace of Shakira
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...05/shakira.jpg ---------- Post added at 10:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 AM ---------- oh oh...what does this mean? |
Think a couple centuries older...
There's also an education institution named after the famous person. |
cartegena?
|
Further east...
|
santa marta?
|
No.. but a battle near me help garner the independence of Colombia's neighboring country.
|
valledupar?
|
Casa de Teja near Tunja?
|
Does this have anyhitng to do with Simón Bolívar?
(who liberated half, if not most, of South America, and is celebrated as such, in nearly every SA country) |
None of the Above... but the Last name does start with S.
|
jose san martin?
|
You've got the right time period, but not the right person.
|
The last name of the person or the town starts with an "S?"
|
Last name of Person.
|
Boyacá
|
Definitely getting closer... there's a road north from Boyaca that takes you the city I'm in... and it ain't Route 66.
|
Merida?
|
Is it route 55?
|
Think Bigger Road... Border town. One of the busiest country borders in South America, actually.
Edit - Poppin - yes! |
Duitama?
|
Puerto Santandar?
|
Cúcuta? ....I still don't have any "logical" connection between Cúcuta and your clues but my SWAG is better than nothing
Even though it doesn't snow in Cúcuta, I wonder if any of you have a spare snow shovel I could borrow...I'll gladly pay you back on Tuesday |
Cucuta is correct!
So in this place... based on my previous clues - -there is a House where this guy lived as a kid - a university with his name - last name starts with S. ---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ---------- Shell.... you're not the right city, but whats in a name, really? |
university of francisco de paula santander?
Francisco de Paula Santander University - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
Phil - the person is right... just need the place where he lived.
|
|
You got it!
Phil you are up... |
By all accounts, I think unclephil has won this round, but if I am able to swoop in and take it, all the better for me trying. (even though I'm still not entirely sure what country we are in...)
The House of Santander is the place where the hero of the Colombian independence Francisco de Paula Santander lived his first 13 years. |
that's the same place, jet...
i'll be back later today in some exotic location... |
I know it's the same place, but maybe she was looking for a different name, or history even.
I was just trying to take away your already unwrapped lollipop. |
what flavor is that lollipop? btw, nice find, uncie
|
still lookin' for the perfect place...
|
Sure, sure, Phil...just take your time.
We all have plenty to do here in front of our puters while we wait for you... :oogle: :expressionless: :cool: :paranoid: :skeptical: Of course, then there's that badnick...he'll just go make some scrumptious concoction and eat it in front of us all while we just sit here and drool. |
Shell, if you drool, consider wearing a bib...nevermind, let me know and I'll take care of it for you. Afterall, what are friends for?
unc, if we've run out of places on Earth we could open it up to the Universe...keep it in this one, though. Those parallel ones confuse me. |
ok, where am i?
|
You are on North America
|
i am on north america...
