1) Wow, the Louvre without the glass pyramid is striking. Louvre (former Palais Royal), 1910 (9,999). 2) The minaret in the background gives us the key clue: we are crossing the Bosphorus in Istanbul, 1979 (9,550). 3) 2024 on the back of the T-shirts. Ah, that is an international sheep-shearing competition... Interesting. I do not have enough knowledge of what areas of the UK do wool. Maybe Wales or Scotland are more rural areas. I take Scotland. Randomly Ayr, Scotland, 2024 (9,002). 4) HK. The problem is the same as always: mainland or island. I am going to Soho, on the island, 1976 (8,341). 5) ‘Australia’ in the big tennis balls. I have no idea where the Australian Open is played. That Jacob's Creek, no idea. Off to Sydney, 2012 (8,607). FINAL SCORE: 45,499
I did not see Australia anywhere until immediately after I guessed 😐. I did actually see the writing on the hat that you saw first but I assumed it said Austria because there was something about Switzerland on the magazine.

HK is always hard to place. Unlucky on the sheep round. Bath was the main clue and is pretty well known in the UK.

I was thinking the same but just assumed it must be Australia.
