jube · Jul 9 2010, 11:36 PM

State of USA that's on the coast?

P'ter · Jul 10 2010, 12:40 AM

Scotland?

Brenda · Jul 10 2010, 12:45 AM

Nope and nope!

jube · Jul 10 2010, 03:06 AM

Ireland?

***Hans*** · Jul 10 2010, 03:46 AM

Caribbean?

vyon · Jul 10 2010, 06:14 AM

Nice cabbage tree.

South of England?

AnnMarie · Jul 10 2010, 12:16 PM

I know you said "no" to the COAST of the USA... I am thinking it still may be in the US...

LoL! Did you look up google too, vyon?

If south of England is wrong, how about somewhere else in England?

Greenrider Tresa · Jul 10 2010, 07:38 PM

Europe?

jube · Jul 10 2010, 08:41 PM

Not sure but related to County Wicklow?

Brenda · Jul 10 2010, 11:48 PM

Well, I definitely visited County Wicklow on that trip, but this photo is not from County Wicklow!

jube · Jul 11 2010, 03:09 AM

O well, thought I'd start with the obvious ......

no worries!

Galway?

No, the tree is southern, but the landscape is not - or at least not any southern that I've seen. And Jube had already said Ireland.

Brenda · Jul 11 2010, 10:50 AM

Jube - not far from Galway.

Anyone want to try to narrow it down further, or should I reveal?

***Hans*** · Jul 11 2010, 02:13 PM

Reveal? We haven't even reached page two yet!

County Kerry?

Lily, sounds like my kind of stuff-up, I'm always doing something like that.

Brenda, well I'd like to keep playing until someone works it out. Never reveal anything until someone has given you the correct answer. This cheeky brat hasn't done so and I don't know if anyone else has so hence why I said I'd like to keep playing as I'm sure everyone else would like to do so. This is fun and your photo's a good one too!

Question time ........ is it part of Connemara National Park?

Brenda · Jul 11 2010, 09:21 PM

I'm sorry if I misunderstood the rules... I thought I was supposed to give yes or no answers?

jube · Jul 12 2010, 12:13 AM

That is correct - a YES or No to any questions that arise is enough. For myself, I "talk" too much sometimes

***Hans*** · Jul 12 2010, 02:25 AM

What is the answer to my question, Brenda?

(and yes you should give only yes and no answers unless the question is very hard, then you could give hints according your own view, but not too early of course)

P'ter · Jul 12 2010, 03:00 AM

Near Ballydehob?

Kath · Jul 12 2010, 06:34 AM

Gaaah. I was going to say Ireland too. The combination of tree and climate sticks it in gulf-stream warmed British Isles, and it doesn't look like Cornwall or Wales...

South down the coastline from Galway itself?

Mine too, please with a cherry on top, thank you!

Brenda · Jul 12 2010, 09:20 AM

Hans - No.
Jube - No.
P'ter - I had to look it up on GoogleMaps, but No!

Kath - Yes.

***Hans*** · Jul 12 2010, 10:55 AM

In County Claire?

spacedog · Jul 12 2010, 08:11 PM

Cliffs of Mohair?

jube · Jul 12 2010, 08:14 PM

Mohair - think he means Moher - apparently the walking dictionary (me) got confused with what he was asking....

My question is......KILLARNEY NATIONAL PARK?

Brenda · Jul 13 2010, 08:45 PM

No, not Killarney National Park.

No, not Cliffs of Moher, although I did see those - on the same day, even!

Yes, County Clare.

jube · Jul 13 2010, 09:09 PM

Doolin?

Brenda · Jul 13 2010, 11:54 PM

Nope.

***Hans*** · Jul 14 2010, 02:33 AM

Are we looking at the river Shannon?

P'ter · Jul 14 2010, 05:13 AM

Dingle?

jube · Jul 14 2010, 10:34 AM

Oranmore?

One simply loves finding almost the exact photo that the poster (in this instance, Brenda) has posted and the person who posted almost the exact photo doesn't say where in the world, they took it. Hmmm...all they said that it was taken in western Ireland. So much for palm trees

or in this instance, Vyon's cabbage tree (radioactive cabbage trees, I'm just not sure about).

Brenda · Jul 14 2010, 10:57 AM

No to all three...

Greenrider Tresa · Jul 14 2010, 01:17 PM

Near Ennis?

Brenda · Jul 14 2010, 07:39 PM

No.

jube · Jul 14 2010, 09:56 PM

Spiddal?

***Hans*** · Jul 15 2010, 02:39 AM

So, are we looking to the Atlantic Coast? (as opposed to the mouth of the river Shannon)

GinnyStar · Jul 15 2010, 01:58 PM

Is it in the area of a body of water with in the USA?

PS, food for thought here, nice image
