Quote

Managed to match up the train 'station' (1°49'41"W 12°17'52"N) and the town of Bingo (1°49'55"W 12°18'00"N) on Google Earth with this map, but I'm still a little helpless with the rest of the locations. Looks like the building at 1°49'59"W 12°18'11"N is the only one long enough to be the school (the trees kind of match up), so I'm thinking the milking was on the south side of the track and the Pit Stop on the north side?

Chateau was able to give us this exact GE picture match:  :yess:

Quote

  Island castle (XIV - XVI c.), Trakai
It is the only insular castle throughout Eastern Europe. It was built on one of the numerous islands in Lake Galvė. The castle was built as a defensive fortress. After the Battle of Žalgiris/Grünwald the castle lost its defensive significance. It was turned into a ducal residence. Trakai Island Castle was the death-place of Grand Duke Vytautas. He died here on 27 October 1430. Later the castle served as a prison. In the XVII century the castle was desolated.
Island castle is one of the most often visited historical-architectural monuments in Lithuania. It houses a historical museum which has been working here since 1962. National events, festivals and concerts take place here.

A su servicio: look here (http://www.izf.net/affiche_oscar.php?num_page=3482), just to the left of Ouaga along the rail line. GE, for some strange reason, put Bingo up in the Northwest, near Goursi.
An interesting site (http://www.statoids.com/) I came across while looking for maps: admin regions, links to maps, dialing codes and time zones, etc.

Post by: apskip on November 18, 2007, 09:50:56 PM

Slowhatch, your latest link HERE allowed me to calculate the distance of 35 km (20 miles) from the center of Ouagadougou to Bingo. It will of course be the same distance back. Also, by inference the probability that taxis can be arranged to take the teams back to Ouagadougou late on July 14 if they need to get to the airport is high so close to the capital. There will be roads that were carefully not shown on any screencaps or video.

A good map I stumbled upon for the route from Ouagadougou to Bingo...

http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/ams/west_africa/txu-oclc-6595921-nd30-15.jpg (http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/ams/west_africa/txu-oclc-6595921-nd30-15.jpg)

Managed to match up the train 'station' (1°49'41"W 12°17'52"N) and the town of Bingo (1°49'55"W 12°18'00"N) on Google Earth with this map, but I'm still a little helpless with the rest of the locations. Looks like the building at 1°49'59"W 12°18'11"N is the only one long enough to be the school (the trees kind of match up), so I'm thinking the milking was on the south side of the track and the Pit Stop on the north side?

Hmm, and the official site of Bingo (http://www.communedebingo.org/index.htm). Can't get much out of their map (http://www.communedebingo.org/reten_eau/ret_eau.htm) though.

Trying to figure out where Bouda-Pelegtanga belongs!

Wikipedia claims it's in the town of Yako, and on the map (http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/ams/west_africa/txu-oclc-6595921-nd30-15.jpg) we used last week, there's a village just to the southeast of Yako (the yellow patch right at the top, centre of the map) labelled Pelretanga. Is this it?

Let's hope that this is a case of great minds think alike because Slowhatch and I also came to the same conclusion. Maybe Bouda means village or something in Moore (that e needs an acute but I don't know how  :( )?  Anyway, I updated the Episode Map thread upstream HERE (http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,13671.msg234307.html#msg234307) last night--please look over and make sure it is right, okay?

I already threw in the topo for Pier 39-S. GE and the major services are OK for the Anchorage metro area. Here (http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lon=-148.8&lat=60.9333333&datum=nad83) is the ice climb and here (http://alyeskarealestate.net//girdwood-map.html) is Girdwood.
