Not London...

Did you know that 44-40 are two of my favorite numbers.
I do not like 8-9 at all

I think this looks more like europe. Bog-standard government type buildings in classical mid-1900s style. Could this be in France?

Europe is correct - but not France
The fountain is in a city known for their men of the sea

Yes if one goes to 44.40° N, 8.9° E they will be in the home town of Christopher Columbus - Genoa

Adrian - So where are we going now? And who is going to take us?

Oh drat, it just hit me as I've been to this city many many times when we lived in FL, St Augustine. That's the cemetery near the old military barracks. I've done that carriage ride.

Think I recognize the logo on the trains (I used to chase trains and be into model railroading but being much more interested in aircraft, they won out). I'll wait a bit to see if someone else has any ideas.

Well, the tile reminds me of Portugal, but CP on the train must be Canadian Pacific so I'll guess out Vancouver way?

British Columbia? Wow that’s a big brush stroke, LOL. Just a guess. Since I saw some folks with masks on, it has to be recent? Just guessing. And given the fact that y’all can’t leave the country, just saying.

I've been to Lisbon and that's where I saw tiles like that but not that ornate castle or whatever it is. So I'll guess Oporto?
