Sounds like it could be in the Food thread :)

Aalsmeerderbrug

Aalsmeerderbrug, home of the Aviation Mega Store.

I've been to Geelong! ... and got eaten alive by sandflies at Queenscliff AND played golf with the kangaroos at Anglesea

Gardenstown - very similar to Pennan where Local Hero was filmed

Nederland - Home of the Frozen Dead Guy and it's associated festival:

"Celebrating its 19th year in 2020, Frozen Dead Guy Days continues to be a world-renowned spectacle. This home-grown festival pays homage to Bredo Morstol (aka Grandpa), who is frozen in a state of suspended animation and housed in a Tuff Shed on dry ice high above Nederland."

Don't miss the coffin races!

Dalry - pronounced Dal-rye, hence this article which had me ROFL https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland- ... e-51674019

Dalry is district in Edinburgh

North Ronaldsay

Most northerly of the Orkney Islands and home to a unique breed of sheep which are kept OFF and on the beach by a stone wall built all the way around. Their diet is mostly seaweed and the meat from them is definitely an acquired taste

Yerseke


Yerseke is a village situated on the southern shore of the Oosterschelde (Eastern Scheldt) estuary in the Dutch province of Zeeland.

Edfu - a town in Egypt, inhabited as far back as pre-dynastic times (before roughly 3200-3100 BC)

Yesnaby - wonderful cliff-top scenery on West coast of Orkney

Ely

Yup - been there too. I went to see an albino wombat at a wildlife park. Maybe about 1983

Peterhead - where my wife was born

Granby - ~8000 ft / 2400 meters - entrance to the west side of Rocky Mountain NP (always chilly!)

Yellowstone - and since we are on the subject of NP https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Muir_Trust

Athens

Yuma .. and you best pick the one in Arizona not Colorado. Far more interesting

Aarlanderveen

Near where I live, almost unknown small green village in the middle of the densely-populated South Holland province (1.783 residents per square kilometer.)

New Lanark - a very pretty place with a fascinating history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Lanark

Basically a large-scale social / industrial experiment which had its own currency, education and health systems well in advance of the national norm of the time. Might look a bit dodgy through modern eyes but revolutionary in its day

Edam, home of Edammer kaas (Edam cheese)

Monterrey - presumably keen to deny any connection to Monterrey Jack cheese as it is truly awful stuff

Aberdeen - my Alma Mater

Gouda (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɣʌudaː] (About this soundlisten))

We'll pretend that you wrote "Australia's Gold Coast" (every Greek Island has a gold coast/golden beach), in that case my answer is

Tytsjerksteradiel
