    To prove myself right ;) I picked up this picture from Google Maps...

    Taken from 31° 12' 19.13" N 29° 53' 19.75" E (the green arrow) looking West towards the El-Mursi Abul Abbas Mosque.

    We even see some of the same boats as in Vulkyn's pic, but in different light and outfit, though.

    Here's one taken from the Abul Abbas Mosque at 31° 12' 17.59" N 29° 52' 54.75" E looking East towards the East Harbour.

    Look SW from this point for Alexandria's West Harbour for commercial shipping.

    Will make a new one tomorrow . . . . :)

    Cheers,
    Angel

    Right Vulkyn, just a little joke I thought I could afford because one of the agreements on this thread is that the one who gave the previous teaser doesn't give the answer to the next one so others can step in. Hints being not giveaways are allowed though. But don't worry, you couldn't know as being new on the thread :)

    Credits has to go to MaxFarrar who took the pics on June 13 - 2005 on Alexandria beach right at the Med between East and West harbour.

    Here are the other pics I had in mind for this one . . . .

    Here some more...

    Lurvio found the answer to Beirut so he's next . . . ? ?

    Good luck..!!
