internets Posted April 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Does Tarquin frequent this place then? Was this taken in eastern Europe?

wookiecj Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Last I heard was that Prague, Tallin and Watford were all in the same continent.... which is not where this place is. Tarquin has been to the place, don't know about Sparky... well, I do actually, that's why he's barred.... he took exactly the same picture on his camera. Think of this as an advertised 'attraction' then you might be in the right area. Then think about who might be crass enough to do this! Helpful hint:- don't bother googling +"berlin wall" +"toilet" or +"berlin wall" +"attraction" as you won't find it, at least on the first 5 pages of both searches anyway.

wookiecj Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) No..... Interesting thought though. It is quite close to an eatery... It hasn't been altered, except to blank out the sign at the top, which would have been a bit of a giveaway. Oh, and another clue:- It's in a station... but not one you would be able to catch a train from....

wookiecj Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 'fraid not...... Tarquin doesn't really like this place. It is MUCH closer to you than it is to me.... by nearly 4000 miles, or possibly 3500 on great circle routes.

wookiecj Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 much closer to you... about 1090 miles if you are strapped to a crow... or 1290 if you are driving. But at least you are in the correct continent now. So... time to reveal all, so to speak... It's at the Main Street Station Casino in Las Vegas, at the end of Freemont Street. The picture in this thread was taken by me, and sparky and countless other people. Let's face it, there is only one place to stand to take the picture.

molemot Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 That's the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in Berlin...Bomber Command did the redecorations in 1943. First saw it when I flew myself out to Berlin in a Vickers Varsity in 1973 whilst doing RAF pilot training. The old Varsity was of similar size to a Wellington bomber, and flying over Germany in it really made me think.....
