Enough of castles, parks and libraries, and ski resorts. Gumbo’s really playing hard-to-find this time. This is WAY better than Where’s Waldo! Give it a try…

So, exactly where is Gumbo today? Please be as specific as possible.
It reminds me of Cappadocia, Turkey…but that’s only because I’m super excited to be going next week so right now any photo I see makes me think of there
While I do see a certain resemblance to Cappadocia, it doesn’t look real to me. More like a model landscape, as you’d have with a model railroad, but seemingly without the railroad. Maybe this is, in fact, what Cappadocia looks like from a hot air balloon, which I understand are popular there. I see no evidence of people in the form of actual people or vehicles, unless that’s a person in red in the lower right-hand corner.
This picture hardly makes sense. Like Leprechauns carving out the Badlands.
I also think it must be Cappadocia, probably Goreme. I was there a few years ago, but didn’t go up in a baloon, whereas I suspect this photo was taken from one.
Yes, thanks! The e-mails will be published on Tuesday night, if you’d like to send your guess to [email protected] if you’d rather not wait to make your claim!
Well, I’m surprised, actually, that this one was spotted so well, despite its truly odd appearance: A strange landscape from a strange perspective. But I should have known that the folks around here are such committed travelers and researchers that it would be impossible to conceal Cappadocia for very long.
The territory was spotted by MAD right away, with concurrence from Roderick Simpson, and PortMoresby’s perceptive suggestion that if it were Cappadocia, it must be from a balloon…and indeed it is.
Tune in Thursday morning for the official “reveal,” with some great photos by our guest submitter, and check in tomorrow because, as he always is, Gumbo is already on his way to a new and puzzling destination.
But you said “please give others a couple of days to work on it”!!!!
No clue, but I’d like to walk there on a windy morning.
