Where do you live? by .blade// on 11-29-2004 at 09:08 PM

Simple thread: I want to see a map of w/e city you live in :banana:

Use http://www.mapquest.com/ or a localized version of it to get the map :banana:.


Here's mine (though the star isn't where MY house is for security reasons ;)):


Location: Kelowna, British Columbia (BC), Canada
Population: Aprox. 145,000
Famous for: The Ogopogo (similar to Nessie ;) [pictures below]):

[Edited]

Even Yehuda, central Israel (a few kilometers from the Mediterranean).
Population: around 9,000. Roey ("DureX"8-)) lives here too. \o/

I know it looks like a dump because of all those fields around it, but it's actually right next to a big city (Netanya), and just 30 minutes from Tel Aviv. :^) We're not farmers. :dodgy:

I couldn't find any neat-looking map though... oh well.

Oh, and here's something for ShMac. :cheesy:

I really like the photos you people post here (I'm writing this in an edit, so I've already seen a few posts ahead). I envy you people, you live in places I consider vacation resorts. :-/ Well, except for marissa. :P

Anyway, I really don't think it's a good idea to show exactly where you live. :-/
Speaking of which, why do I get the feeling WDZ won't cooperate in this thread? ;)

this is where i live. its a village in Wiltshire,England. it has about 900 people living in it, i think, and there is a school and a church. it is okay, but not that big and can get VERY boring!! but it is cool, and there is a town nearby and Swindon is not too far away.
