Shell 02-09-2010 07:19 AM

So, you're in Colombia.

amonkie 02-09-2010 07:20 AM

My bad... South America. So for that I'll help.

I'm in Colombia... in a place where a famous person once lived.

Shell 02-09-2010 07:32 AM

BadNick 02-09-2010 07:33 AM

oh oh...what does this mean?

amonkie 02-09-2010 07:39 AM

Think a couple centuries older...

There's also an education institution named after the famous person.

uncle phil 02-09-2010 08:48 AM

cartegena?

amonkie 02-09-2010 02:25 PM

Further east...

uncle phil 02-09-2010 02:29 PM

santa marta?

amonkie 02-09-2010 02:58 PM

No.. but a battle near me help garner the independence of Colombia's neighboring country.

uncle phil 02-09-2010 03:05 PM

valledupar?

Tully Mars 02-09-2010 05:15 PM

Casa de Teja near Tunja?

Jetée 02-09-2010 05:28 PM

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)

amonkie 02-09-2010 05:38 PM

None of the Above... but the Last name does start with S.

uncle phil 02-10-2010 03:28 AM

jose san martin?

amonkie 02-10-2010 03:33 PM

You've got the right time period, but not the right person.

Tully Mars 02-11-2010 05:48 AM

The last name of the person or the town starts with an "S?"

amonkie 02-11-2010 05:50 AM

Last name of Person.

Tully Mars 02-11-2010 06:16 AM

Boyacá

amonkie 02-11-2010 06:20 AM

Definitely getting closer... there's a road north from Boyaca that takes you the city I'm in... and it ain't Route 66.

Tully Mars 02-11-2010 06:24 AM

Merida?

Poppinjay 02-11-2010 06:28 AM

Is it route 55?

amonkie 02-11-2010 06:28 AM

Think Bigger Road... Border town. One of the busiest country borders in South America, actually.

Edit - Poppin - yes!

Poppinjay 02-11-2010 06:40 AM

Duitama?

Shell 02-11-2010 06:43 AM

Puerto Santandar?

BadNick 02-11-2010 09:04 AM

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

amonkie 02-11-2010 10:51 AM

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.

Shell.... you're not the right city, but whats in a name, really?

uncle phil 02-12-2010 03:15 AM

university of francisco de paula santander?

Francisco de Paula Santander University - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

amonkie 02-12-2010 03:34 AM

Phil - the person is right... just need the place where he lived.

uncle phil 02-12-2010 04:15 AM

here?

File:Casa de Francisco de Paula Santander.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

amonkie 02-12-2010 04:21 AM

You got it!

Phil you are up...

Jetée 02-12-2010 04:24 AM

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.

uncle phil 02-12-2010 04:31 AM

that's the same place, jet...

i'll be back later today in some exotic location...

Jetée 02-12-2010 04:33 AM

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.

BadNick 02-12-2010 06:43 PM

what flavor is that lollipop? btw, nice find, uncie

uncle phil 02-13-2010 03:06 AM

still lookin' for the perfect place...

Shell 02-13-2010 03:35 AM

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.

BadNick 02-13-2010 09:12 AM

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.

uncle phil 02-13-2010 10:00 AM

ok, where am i?

Jetée 02-13-2010 10:28 AM

You are on North America

uncle phil 02-13-2010 10:57 AM

i am on north america...
