port hardy?
|
hint: first pic is on the east coast. It was a coast to coast posting thing
|
I'm going with Digby, NS for the first pic, Leto.
|
nope. digby isn't a capital city.
d'oh! I typed the quiet part loud... |
Halifax, NS?
I was in Gibsons this week, but my guess was Port Hardy. |
I'll guess Fredericton, NB.
|
hmmm...
Halifax: nope Fredericton: nope |
Charlottetown, PEI
|
yep. the Marina downtown, taken from my hotel room window.
|
Should have guessed that right away... after all you had a hotel reservation there that kept you from seeing more of Hopewell Rocks.

Real guess - never been there - Calgary?
|
Since Calgary has been guessed already, I'll guess Edmonton. These camera angles are hard.
|
|
Hamilton?...
|
Downtown Saskatoon?
|
I'll go with Winnipeg, view of the Downtown.
|
That's a picture that might be guessed by attrition. I mean, how many places in Canada are there with sky scrapers?
I'm guessing, Winnipeg? |
It's Winnipeg... but I want more specific.
|
OK - Leto, it's Rock Paper Scissors time! :D
|
Charlatan wants specifics, and I don't profess to know Winnipeg that well. You go for it ...
|
Lombard and main
|
Nope. The windiest intersection in North America.
|
The camera seems to be at Water and main.
|
Looking down Portage toward main

Game on Tachion
|
|
up a tree?
|
lol . Nope it is from a park standing on the ground very close to a major city which I would see if I turned left 90 degrees.
|
burnaby mtn (SFU)?
|
Bingo and here it is centered on google for those interested.
Looking North http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...3,0.077591&t=k |

Christ Church Vancouver?
|
|
game on fresnelly

|
Under Queen's quay in Toronto?
|
I'd say it's the Don River, where the rail lines cross.
|

|
...or where Eastern crosses the river.
The bridge in the foreground is the off ramp from the DVP and the taller one is the Eastern Street Bridge. The one beyond is the closed bridge. |
Quote:
|
but look how nice those lights are. Hardly the type to be found near the Don river, That's why I was thinking of a touristy Queen's Quay
** edit... so maybe it's over by the Humber River. Or near Palace Pier, under lakeshore |
Is that the mouth of Highland Creek... down by the water treatment plant and the rail lines?
|
Here's another pic, taken from about 20 feet north.

That would be the Picton Castle -- in port at Lunenburg, NS.

Lock 1 of the Rideau Canal

Kingston - Rideau system locks
Heck I've lived there - I know that is not quite right... My memory is .... what was I saying..? |

if it is, then I had a job interview there as a guard for a summer job back in '81 |
That sounds right to me! (as does the first lock)
|
And where is that Splck?
|
|
Game on Lucifer... that was the acurate answer.
|
In keeping with Fresnelly's big monument series, I humbly offer this:
http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...choo/swan1.jpg |
Wawa, Ontario
|

Here's a famous waterfall, no, it's not Niagara... |
Quote:
Sigh, I miss the bump. When we were kids driving to Toronto, we always looked forward to the bump. They should have built the bump back into the new bridges. |

Peterboro Lift Lock
Ontario that is.. If I am correct, lets continue with JamesTKirk waterfall pic. |
You are definately correct (I was going to use that one next myself). On to the waterfall picture...

Montmorency Falls, near Quebec City
|
I would say those falls are Chute-Montmorency, near Quebec City
Splck beat me to it... damn. |
I'm always after bonus points:
Built to honour local resident and world renowned test pilot, Janusz Zurakowski. excellent website here: Janusz Zurakowski |

I also got to meet Dr. James Floyd, head of Engineering at Avro at the time of the Arrow, the designer of the "jetliner" the first jet powered jet aircraft ever built (and flown) in North America. Avro ended up cutting that one up too. We Canadians never seem to be too good at marketing our discoveries. |

Site of Wolfe's first landing at Quebec City. |
Game - on splk!
