Where in the world is HAL?

[bluesea777]

Not a sharp picture but we left port a couple of hours late. Which bridge were we crossing under?

 

[bluesea777]

What port were we leaving from? You would have seen it if you stayed out on deck a little longer ... it's an embarkation port.

Early morning arrival to port: Extra point if you can name the mountain.

You have posted some difficult (for me) pics.  Is this Barcelona?

Where is the Volandam? We got a canon salute as we were leaving the harbor.

I remembered the high mast, but couldn't place it. Thought of Morocco.

Is it Aqaba, Jordan?

Winner!

 

It was our favourite day - we went to Petra and Wadi Rum. Private car tour.

Correct. A local bartender gave me a bad time for ordering a Victoria Bitter in New South Wales.

That's pretty.

It looks like Hakodate, Japan. I recognize the fort, although we did not go up into the tower that overlooks it.

Winner!  I thought after the discussion on manhole covers we should include some other highlights of this port!
