You quoted the wrong one. That was about Panama. @getting older slowly talked about Ceduna which I too was curious as I don't remember that much security when I stayed there, though it was many years ago🤔

Alcohol was the cause of the problem after dark when we were there.  Daytime no problem.

Oh, I see.  Even Brisbanes suburban trains can be dodgy after dark.

We were there in 2001..... also there were Armed Guards at the entrance and exit of the drive in bottle shop..

 

The issue at the time was a few of the indigenous people....

Also we were follow down the street, after buying some film for the camera... two behind us and one of the other side of the street watching... was not comfortable. at about 4ipm

There are a few places around this country, we had a bad experience in Moree in the middle of the night we would rather forget.

Misuse of Alcohol is the reason women in some aboriginal communities have banned alcohol in their communities.

Our cruise was due to stop there for two days. We were going to take the train into Paris on the first day, then explore Honfleur on the second.

Two days would have been perfect for Paris and Honfleur visit.  What a disappointment.

[bronbeth]

Not Alaska. 
 

[getting older slowly]

How about Russia ????      ( well the Russians did sell Alaska to America )

Correct🤗 They started in 2001 to commerate an anti communist movement that used dwarfs as symbols and have been adding more statues ever since. Last count 350 of the little statues all around the city. It is a great city with great food though we did have to walk in pouring rain back to the hotel. Here are some gratuitous shots of the city along with more dwarfs. The big guy in the left hand corner is the King of the Dwarfs😜:

I went out one night on a train, even took photos, didn't feel dodgy at all.
