Triple i - Answer

If you like silly puzzles, you'll love this one ! 


I stumbled upon a "triple i", and since sometimes everything goes in threes, I found two other places with a big i ! 

Careful, there's more to this than meets the i ! (groan) Those are not in the same city, but in three different ones, which do have something in common though. 

This should be enough to get you going (again, if you're interested in this kind of silly puzzle   ). 


Btw, Happy New Year everybody. Let's hope it will be. 

A clue before the 100th view ! (That should be a rule, lol). 

I'm not sure what clue you need, but here's one:

These three different cities share the same name, and that name means "three cities".

Thanks for that clue!

thanks for the clue!
but, johnluke, how can you be so wrong, those are not is but !s

anecdote: i lived in location #2 for 2-3 years back in the 60s ! ! !

Well done, Walter_V_R , krenek and Utapao ! Walter, since I've been back I see you always "have it"! Always the champion !   Great to see you in good shape! 

And sorry if it was too hard. I was trying to post a puzzle that wouldn't be too easy this time. After so long away from F&G it's a bit hard for me the find the right proportions of easy/difficult. 


And Krenek, you're right, those could be !!! not iii   , but there's only a slight problem you see. If those weren't the letter "i", then...

...the pun on the city name and the title of this puzzle wouldn't work !

Ok, I know it works better if you pronounce the "i" the French way, but still...   ... it's there for all to see. 

Phew Musky 🥵

Well done all,  and sorry if this was a bit far-fetched...

This "triple i" is in Tripoli (get it?), but in three different Tripolis, in three different countries: Greece, Lybia, Lebanon. Tripoli does mean "three cities" in Greek.
