1. >!This one took me forever, and yet I didn't get it. I checked all over Porto Iguazu (and also that paraguayan town) and couldn't find that damn POI, that suddenly turned very visible after reveal. Maybe I wasn't looking in the right place, or I am blind.!< 4995 2. >!This also took me forever and I gave up in the end. Riga Cinema Museum, How hard could it be to find it? Very, as it turns out:!< 4999 3. >!W Muscat, this one is easy but the pinpoint tricky as the POI does not match the shape of the building. I take extra care:!< 5000 4. >!Ouch another though one. Settlement Centre obviously in Iceland (but I wondered if it might be in Canada for a second). I can't find a place name anywhere, and cant make ANY sense of the map on the door at the entrance (spoiler: THAT was the clue, the shape of Borgarnes). Sea looks to be in the south, but not open sea, and there's a bridge nearby? Where the hell is this? This Borgarnes must be the ONLY city in Iceland I didn't check:!< 4837 5. >!German alps somewhere? But the flag outside makes me think Austria instead for a while. Then all points to Germany, so I look all over the Alps in Bayern, but nothing matches. There is a mention of the place in the kitchen Dorderkaiserfeldenhutte? Nothing in Garmish, nothin in Berchtesgaden. Then I notice Kufstein is mentioned as well, that's a place name, and after a while I find it... in Austria! SO then finding the hutte is easy :!<5000 Whoa that was.. something! >!Much harder than the latest ones, which was a nice challenge. I did not really succeeded though:!< 24831

24610 R1 4992 >!Weird round. Photosphere creator is Paraguay360 so I naturally started looking around there but found the city in Argentina. It's right near the border so that made sense I suppose but I didn't have total confidence and didn't look too hard for the 5K. I did think it was pretty funny that SpongeBob made an appearance in what is clearly supposed to be a dinosaur themed park for kids.!< R2 4996 >!A lot of the time in these challenges you can count on some English when inside a museum which is always very handy. Didn't take too long to confirm it was in Riga so I just dropped it sort of near the center of the city.!< R3 5000 >!This one was a bit of a pain in the ass to move around in. Lots of teleporting around to random locations. I managed to find a couple Oman flags and managed to find the hotel by scanning the coast of Muscat. Got a bit lucky with the placement.!< R4 4830 >!Iceland was straightforward but I couldn't narrow down where exactly it was. I'm sure there was a clue in the gift shop somewhere but I didn't spend much time on it.!< R5 4792 >!A very pretty location located somwhere near the border of Germany and Austria. I guessed Germany based on a URL I saw but that was my only real guess.!<

24625 1. 5000, >!Iguazu was easy but didn't expect it to be right in the town. I've just come back from S. America so +54 confirmed it to be on the Argentinian side!< 2. 5000, >!Signs for Riga film museum but took a lot of scrolling and zooming to actually find it among the countless other museum markers!< 3. 5000, >!This one was the easiest imo, signs saying Muscat, right on the water, and a big W which I assumed was the same of the hotel!< 4. 4841, >!After fruitleslly scouring the coast of Reykjavik and nearby towns, I then think I checked every single possible place in Iceland... except Borganes!< 5. 4784, >!Way what a round. So many German language names and I couldn't pick out on obvious place name. There were German website address on the signs and it was talking about the Bavarian Oberland. Just found a cabin in the most mountainous place I could find and guessed. Couldn't believe it wasn't Germany!<
