Quiz - where the hell am I?

Post by Harold »

After unblocking drains and pipes to the septic tank, (what a ‘s*%#’ job), I decided to relax this afternoon. Sorted through some photographs and decided to place some on a web page, a sort of quiz: “Do you know where the hell you are in Africa?”

First prize in a Humwee with a Hilux thrown in to pull the beast when it breaks down, or gets stuck!

Please note that the judge’s decision is final and judging will only take place 40 years from now so as to give everyone a chance. Entries must be submitted by 12.00 on 9th August 2007.

Answers would be appreciated - I have more if there is interest!

Hi Harold,

I don't know where you are, but if I was at any of those places, I guess I would be hopelessly lost :P

I'll settle for second prize, the Hilux. You can keep the Hummer!

Seems like you've been some places.
My guess would be
1. Kokerboomkloof - Richtersveld
2. No idea, looks like Drakensberge
3. Seemed like Duwisib Castle in Namibia but I am not sure
No clue for the rest, this just shows that one has to keep one's eye open when you travel, or travel more frequently.

1. Not Richersveld but reasonable close
2. Yes, Drakensberg - but where?
4. Not Dusib
