Using the following clues (the map above is purely decorative) in combination with Street View and tools like MAPfrappe, work out my location.
Although Roman, THC’s chief puzzlewright, would be interested to know how long it takes you to solve this solo foxer, he’d rather you didn’t put spoilers or solutions in the comments.
Today you’ll find me on a road that shares a name with a popular board game. In a verdant dormitory town that boasts nine Airbnb hosts and a memorable two-word name (the name makes me think of a nursery rhyme) I’m three kilometres from a large, combative, roadside reptile, around two and a half kilometres from two different fire stations, and roughly 200km from a recently closed uranium mine. The nearest foreign country has a Kalashnikov on its official emblem and is closer than the nearest national capital or nuclear reactor. I’m equilatitudinous with only one country that begins with the same letter as the country I’m in.
You’re probably in the right place if you can see…
- Tinsel
- Termite mounds
- A T-junction
- Solar panels
- Automatic gates
- Shipping containers
- The head of a reindeer
- Several white vehicles
- The number “5063”
- No people
I’m not in Pont-à-Mousson.
(Last week I was here)
Termite mounds ahoy! Eventually.
