Ellen, good guess for the clue, but not right. This is a film location for a very famous musical starring a very famous "king". Blue is in the title.

Carol, that's the musical. Now does anyone know the name of the Bay?

OK, I know what it is, because I cheated and googled it, but I'm not sure this was such an easy picture as you thought? I guess it depends on how familiar a person is with Hawaii. Never been there myself..

Carol, maybe it's not that easy, but a quick google search of my own picture shows it's a very popular vantage point.

Technically we're supposed to wait 18 hours to do a google search though..

Carol, yes. I did one before I posted the picture and saw many similar photos. That's why I thought this one may have been easier. Guess I was wrong.

I spent a month on Oahu in college and went snorkeling in Hanauma several times! I also went back with my husband when we were first married, but haven't been back in a while.

So excited to pick the next photo to share - stand by!

No, I don’t know the location on Capri. It was just a guess based on pix and clues.
Spent our time there on the plaza at the top of the gondola. Fantastic view, food, beverages, memories.

Burial tomorrow for my 96.5 yo father in law in Key West. Life long CONCH, who lived on Dry Tortuga as a young boy when his father worked as the lighthouse keeper in the late 1920s. One of the Last of The Greatest Generation!

You’re up, man

Condolences JP. You're right about the Greatest Generation! Not sure about the prisoner. We had Geronimo up here at Ft. Pickens.

Sleepychef obviously knows and is staying quiet, so I am to guess Croatia.

Not Split. As Sleepychef said, this city was in shambles in the early 90's. It's a beautiful city today!
