Where am I?

[Wolfram]

Ok folks I will start with a disclaimer here:

No I am not bragging nor trying to be coy.

I confess I am an amateur compared to a lot of you.

I am playing this game/simulation to have fun on my terms not be judged for what I am or have not acheived...

This link is to a page I started to catalog my journey for thus far it has been my best.

But mostly I started this page to make people think.

:hmm:

So take a look and see if you can figure out where on the planet U-97 is?

LOL got it on target mister.

Wonder if I sail south I can find Avon Lady?

:lurk:

[trenken]

What do I win?

[trenken]

If I were feeling really ambitious, I would have used Google Earth and shown you a real picture of the actual spot you were at.

[Wolfram]

:hmm: a prize? Never thought of that one maybe you can join me. See above post

[trenken]

I don't need a prize. Just joking. :know:

[trenken]

Who is Avon Lady?

[Wolfram]

:lurk:

[trenken]

[Wolfram]

Map Quest was bad enough but now CV-707 using satellites on me... :ping:

Most Fun in this game I have had in a long time...typically long drawn out missions in the Atlantic...

Now I am cruisin' the Med....

[Wolfram]

BTW CV-707 sir check your map coordinates again...

:lurk:

[trenken]

Yeah I was gonna say he is wrong.

[Wolfram]

:lurk:

[Wolfram]

Should be a City nearby ;-)

Cool site btw CV-707 - can you get close-ups?

[trenken]

The best thing to do is download the google earth application and install it. Its insane! Way better than the google website.

CV-707 the last picture is what I meant by close-up or called zoom-in.

Sometimes I forget to use good English - my apologies.

Yes the picture you have sent is the location of U-97. I started the mission in Dec 1940 from St. Nazaire - refuel and rearm in Tobruk.
