Please forgive the image quality -- it was taken at dusk and cropped from a small section of a cell phone photo. If no one recognizes it, I'll post a version that is zoomed out a bit more.

The buildings look European but the water tower is uniquely American... Annapolis, MD?

Possibly Japanese or Chinese. I think there's a tower like that in Tokyo but don't think that's this one. [color:"red"]FRAN[/color] "Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late"

Then there's the palm tree so I'll try Okinawa? Don't know a city name.

Apparently while people don't jump from the actual bridge they do jump from the rocks under it. Beautiful spot but jumping is not for me. If correct someone else go ahead and post the next photo please. Last edited by Fran; 03/23/2021 05:55 AM. [color:"red"]FRAN[/color] "Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late"
