Game on Fresnelly.

Why did I only discover this game on page 58 or so? I played once on page 1 and then let 58 pages of goodness pass me by. If I stray again I implore you to drag me back in

Curious. My screen shows we're only on page 46. Are you from the future? Shouldn't you know all the answers then?

Next up:

I guess it depends on how many posts per page you have set as default.

Is that the Xerox Canada building in Mississauga?

Hmm. Good idea for a post, but no, it's not the Xerox submarine.

Nope. Farther south in a city besides Toronto that I've used before.

Oh the suspense!

It's a tourist attraction/institution in Edmonton.

That's an old picture of the "Telus World of Science". Used to be the Odyssium. Before that, the Edmonton Space and Science Centre.

Quit it with the Edmonton stuff. I don't want to keep getting them then not having time to post.



In Alberta too.

Also, although I had this picture on my hard drive, I'm not sure where I got it. The photographer's label has been removed.

fresnelly

Is that on Whyte Ave in front of the Varscona Theatre?

Bossnass

Solid guess, but different firehall in a different city.

(You probably meant the firefighter monument off of 83rd, by the New Theatre)

fresnelly

Uh, The firehall in Calgary?

Not in Calgary either.

I am going to continue becuase as Bossnass stated he does not have that much time on his hands to post an image. Bossnass, correct me if I am wrong.

Here we go, next one:

Indeed, Red Deer it is.

The city (about 80k) has a series of 'ghosts' throughout the downtown. Bronze statues of historic local figures. Some pretty interesting ones, like a casual old man sitting on a bus stop bench. This is of the first fire brigade, outside the old firehall, now library.

Also, that faucet isn't at the waterpark at medicine hat is it?

Sticky

No, the faucet is not at a waterpark in MEDICINE HAT.

Then at Wild Rapids in Sylvan Lake?

Sticky

Nope,

hint (although I am not sure how much of a hint at this point): It is viewable from a highway as you drive by.

Bossnass

I'm pretty sure it is in the west. I'm certain I've seen it recently, but I remember vividly seeing it when I was younger. Then again, the floating faucet is probably not unique to any one waterpark.

Sticky

If you have seen it out west then it is not unique to one water park.
That I guess is hint #2 (i.e. it is not out west)

This is a map of the Water Park

I am very sorry about that folks. I dissapeared on vacation for two weeks. A couple of days from the end of my vacation the thought occured to me - Oh Shit I left the WHere and I thread hanging.

I am glad that rmarshall figured it out.

rmarshall, that looks like the area in fron of Places Des Arts in Montreal. You can see PVM in the background. This is proabably a Jazz fest pick.

Nice, I just cancelled off a whole provice in one question.

Let's try a little bit of science (I know nothing about science).
It looks to me like a sunset rather than a sunrise. It also looks like the sun would be off somewhere over the water horizon. If this is the case then the pic would have to be loking out west.

Somewhere in BC?

That looks like Lake water to me. Is it the Leslie Spit or the mouth of the Humber River on Lake Ontario?

No to BC. No to Leslie Spit and Humber Bay. Getting close though.....
