Our winners today 🍍


🥇 The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge - Adventures In Kansai P1 by @rt395

" As with so many Japanese landmarks one of the features of the Akashi bridge is it's observation deck just below the roadway above it. In order to get there you have to pay $3 and take an elevator 8 stories up. After exiting to a staging room you then walk outside to an open walkway. This walkway will take you to the enclosed observation deck which has a viewing area, a cafe and a souvenir shop."

🥈 Travel Journal: Second Day in Edinburgh (Edinburgh Tattoo, Dinner, City) by @nils1990

" We had tickets for the Edinburgh Tattoo that night! The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo is a big concert directly within the Edinburgh castle. It has a mix of traditional music, military music, and modern performances! Since 1950 it is one of the biggest events in Scottland and nowadays it is watched by 100 million people on television."

🥉 Kilimli Bay, Ağva, İstanbul [ENG-TUR] by @videoaddiction

" First of all, let me state that the place where we entered was above the bay. That is, you have to go down the steep slopes to go to the bay and the beach. Going down these steep slopes could be dangerous for everyone, especially older people. As far as we could see, you might get hurt even if you go down from the most flat part of the slope. I think the negative side of Kilimli Bay is that steep slope."

      Hey, @pinmapple, @livinguktaiwan , a few minutes ago I went to pinmapple.com to check for some European pins on the map and found out there are none. I tried different scales (zooming in and out), changed the terrain look map/satellite, etc. Still, no pins. Tried to filter on account name, no luck either. I think I better not post my travel story unless this gets fixed, hopefully soon :) Wishing you a great Sunday! :)

      Hello @lightcaptured our bad we should have put out an announcement post.

      There's been some issues with Pinmapple where the pins are not showing and the devs are fixing it as we speak. They've been doing that for a couple of days. Posts from users will still be pinned onto the map, it's just that we've stopped doing the daily Travel Digest in the meanwhile due to this issue. We're still upvoting so we can continue to support good content.

      Hopefully we can fix this very soon. Let me get an update out.

      Oh, I see. Thanks for the prompt response! Fingers crossed the devs resolve that issue sooner! Please let me know if I could be of any help :)
