Damn it Chateau, I had that! :lol: It goes by another name of the Todd Architects Museum, and it is a homage to maritime history (like Chateau said) -  the bit with the bagpipe players is possibly Holyrood but I'll ask my friend who lives in Edinburgh tonight for some help :lol:

Of course we have the Jungfraubahn



Sorry about the size of these!  The usual resizing method does not seem to be working for me.

I saw these Balinese girls dancing, a blushing swampy Okavango Delta, a jet boat over New Zealand's South Island. Then, we have Jungfrau Observatory seen in live tweets thread.

:40 turns out to be Edinburgh Castle?

Seen here, the observatory in Jungfrau called Jungfraujoch.

Definitely not Edinburgh Castle, that has a far greater fortification than the castle in the intro - I'm inclined to say it's more likely a castle in Belfast. So far, we can rule out Belfast Castle and Carrickfergus Castle (although that's not 100% out of reach, I just couldn't find a half-decent picture). At :42, there seems to be a cemetery, which I think might be Edinburgh Cemetery, as a lot of Scottish tombstones include the skull and crossbones on them. Alternatively, it could be Greyfriars Kirk, but I am leaning more towards Edinburgh Cemetery.







(Sorry the actual pic of Edinburgh Castle is considerably smaller than the others, I just used an already resized picture from my Pic library).

Caps 7 and 22 is definitely from Bali, Indonesia!


In cap 22, the dancers in the back is the Kecak dancers, and the white creature in the left is Hanuman, which usually appears in the part of the Kecak routine.


I also think that cap 11 and 39 is the monkey from the Ubud Monkey Sanctuary, Indonesia. But I maybe wrong. :lol:

Caps 26, 34 and 38 are definitely Bushmen people in Botswana, mostly in Northern part of the area.





Cap 40 is from Hanoi, Vietnam with a person carrying baskets definitely in Hoan Kiem lake, it maybe correct?

You are right, Kamineko. It's from this particular spot in the Ubud forest (photo source).

Cap 25 is the underground tunnel which the Jungfrau train goes, which could be lead to Cap 15 being potentially the Eiger

I really wouldn't be surprised if this was the Pit Stop for the leg in Edinburgh, now we just need to locate where those darn bagpipe players are :lol: It's not Holyrood on further inspection, and the other place it could have been (New Register House) doesn't have the triangular arch above the windows
