The restaurant name was visible in one of the photos Carol.
Fred is correct. Beautiful Brantome in the Dordogne region of France.

Thanks to the restaurant sign and Google. If someone has a picture to post, please go ahead. Otherwise I'll see what I can find.

This should go quick - I hope so as I don't have a follow-up. Where's Carol on this one?

In referring to this country, we often use one place name - officially, this country contains two place names for a total of three words. The name of the international airport is the same as the statue in the picture.

I’m surprised that no one has guessed this yet Fred. Way to easy for me, so I’ll let it keep going.

SXMFOX, I'm surprised as well. BTW, around 30 years ago we used to rent beach cottages, along with other families, just north of Surf City. Most of those cottages have washed away over the years but we sure enjoyed the area for a few years.

I can think of one place that fits that clue but I don't have any photos so uif I'm correct then someone else is free to go, Antigua and Barbuda?

Yes, those were the days. Hurricane after hurricane finally got all of those homes, they even had to move the road back because the ocean took the old one. It is amazing, no matter how strong you build it, the ocean will always take what it wants.

I can only make out a small portion of words, but seems more like German so I'll guess Germany?

This edifice is in Germany, albeit not in Stuttgart.

I won't even guess at where in Germany. I think it's actually the Borg ship from Star Trek.

I've seen some interesting and similar buildings on TV but don't recall where they were in Germany, perhaps Hamburg?

Zanshi, isn’t this the building with the glass walkways and maybe inside parking? Didn’t you live across from there at one time, just asking? Wish I could think of the name of it, anyway just rambling

Well dam Carol, that went fast! Your up! We do love those breezes that come through there with an ice cold beer in our hands!

It just looked very much like pictures I've seen of it, although we have never been back there on the back patio.
