#WhenTaken #27 I scored 808/1000 🎉 1️⃣ 📍 1510 km - 🗓️ 3 yrs - ⚡ 144 / 200 2️⃣ 📍 1562 km - 🗓️ 2 yrs - ⚡ 145 / 200 3️⃣ 📍 447 km - 🗓️ 1 yrs - ⚡ 172 / 200 4️⃣ 📍 398 km - 🗓️ 6 yrs - ⚡ 168 / 200 5️⃣ 📍 263 km - 🗓️ 3 yrs - ⚡ 179 / 200 whentaken.comMy guesses: Casablanca (when in this game and guessing, guess Morocco. Wrong guess today) Los Angeles The photo felt west-coast. I should have picked up on the bit of evergreen trees that are visible. Wiesbaden - the van has German text, the city is near the center of historical West Germany. Northern suburbs of London. Obviously Europe, english words, only guessing after that. Nagoya Japan, I thought Japan but not certain. To me it could have been Korea. The city didnt seem huge so I guessed outside of Toyko. I saw the Tunisian flag in the first one, so I was guessing somewhere in Tunis. irimi was closer, and I wanted to find out why. My second one was a bad guess. All of my guesses on that day were just guesses, except Japan. I don't remember my thinking that led me to place my guess where I did. And unfortunately, the game doesn't let you go back to the earlier puzzles. |

#WhenTaken #28 I scored 617/1000 🎉 1️⃣ 📍 934 km - 🗓️ 12 yrs - ⚡ 132 / 200 2️⃣ 📍 2 km - 🗓️ 5 yrs - ⚡ 195 / 200 3️⃣ 📍 2 km - 🗓️ 3 yrs - ⚡ 197 / 200 4️⃣ 📍 7652 km - 🗓️ 22 yrs - ⚡ 56 / 200 5️⃣ 📍 2489 km - 🗓️ 59 yrs - ⚡ 37 / 200 whentaken.comNumber 3 was my best individual score ever. Easy-peasy. I knew #4 was trying to trick me, but I guessed the wrong continent. Oh well. #5 was awfully generic. I couldn't find a hint at all. |

There was a guy in the photo who didn't have Asian features and now I'm looking at it again and his cap has a Blackhawks logo on it? I didn't think the buildings looked like China but I went with it. For photo 5, I thought one hat looked Russian so I went with St. Petersburg. Was lucky to be close on the year |

How did you pinpoint it so well? I cannot understand the language, but I know it, when I see it. The annual New Year celebration at the capital is insane, so I have seen videos from various parts of the city. Just lucky that I was as close as I was. |

I chose closer to where it was. But I was still a couple of countries off. |

But I had no clue about the location. You nailed #5. I felt like I should have known it. Yeah, for #2I guessed a building that I thought was on the parade route, because my sister-in-law works there. But I am not sure, if it actually is on the parade route. Did you try and guess specifically? I remember that #3 happened, but I misremembered the year badly. I should have known it was nearer to the wall falling. Everything in that part of the country is hard to guess, though, because of all of the Communist-era cars and clothing. I meant overall, I was close, but you destroyed me in years. You are great at guessing years. I am working on improving. |

Without that clue, I would have guessed much earlier. |
