Well done!! Full points to you, Sir!
I reckon that could be near Lofoten
Different part of the world. Different ocean.
Or the Aleutian Islands
It’s not in the Aleutian Islands, but it’s on the Ring of Fire. That should narrow it down somewhat.
Looks like one of many outcroppings along the west of of Vancouver Island, or Haida Gwaii
It‘s not in Canada.
Russia? That bit of land poking out toward Japan from the north-east.
(Hah, I say “bit of land” but it’s actually the size of the UK! Flipping Russia is so huuugeee!)
Vulcan Snou, Bystryy Strait, Broliv Snoi, Brat Tschirpojew
No, it‘s not Kamchatka, but you‘re getting closer.
Yes, you got it.
Amazing how green that island is. At least in the sim.
That really only leaves the Kuril Islands, but which one? Maybe Kunashir Kunashiri, just north of Hokkaido?
Yeah … well, … I’m afraid that story is not true …
Bayreuth is pronounced “Biroyt” => “Bi” like in Joe “Biden” and “oy” as in Rolls “Royce”.
While Beirut in German is pronounced “Biroot” => like in the “root of all evil”.
The ‘r’ is always pronounced differently in German. There’s no English equivalent I am aware of. Similar to the Spanish “raton”. An English native speaker is always immediately identified because he most likely can’t speak the German ‘r’ - just like many Germans can’t speak the English ‘th’
And that’s the end of my linguistics lesson for today. Thank you for reading it
It is in the Kuril Islands. Bit sehnsedahamses was a bit quicker.
Oh man that was so in the right heading!!!
Well done @sehnsedahamses
Thank you for the help.
I think it is no wonder how green they are, this islands are not so far north at the same latitude as Switzerland or Seattle.
Here is my next riddle:
.Hhrrm, another white mountain??? Clue: Some say it holds an record, some disagree.
Insta-clue! I give this one 7 mins
K2 the worlds 2nd tallest mountain (some say the tallest).
Unfortunately no, it’s not the K2. And he’s not in Asia. Or is it? I think I talk too much…
