Crrrap! I've been taken again, and this time I am really lost.

Offering up this ToD badge to the winner.

All I know is that I was stuffed into the back of a white van. The van seemed to drive around this park, and I managed to get the following views. In one of the views you can see part of the van.

Rules and details below.

The man guarding me in the truck is a nice man, and I can ask him questions about where I am, but he will only answer "yes" or "no". So I need your help in figuring out which questions to ask because he says he will only answer 10.

If you want to ask a question, do so in this thread. If the questioned is "seconded" by someone else in the thread, I will ask it of the guard.

In order to free me, you must provide an approximate address, as well as the name of the company on the side of the van, so the police can find me. Each person can only guess the location once, so be sure!. First to guess correctly and post their guess in this thread wins the tour of duty badge.

Can you find me?

The green registration plate told me you were in Norway.Then I needed to face West and check the coastline for an estuary running North to South with a major city that had a port deep enough to accomodate tall ships.Oslo.Looked for a park opposite the city overlooking the harbour,looked for a historical site or war museum.Zoomed in on street view straight onto a cobbled road,walked round museum roads and Bingo white van man.To be fair all war museums look very similar in Europe and being an ex army brat who spent 12 years living in Germany I had an idea what to look for.

First rate detective work there! I will have to provide an even greater challenge next time.

Bravo Andraste. Seems simple when you explain it, but I was so far away I didn't really even begin to look.

OK........I had to find it. I looked up that place on my google earth. I turned all the 3D building on. I walked around. I found the van.

But WOW! The ability of Andraste to actually find where it was.......AMAZING!
