Have been struggling with this all day today. Been out for lunch, come back, still none the wiser or know where to start:

"The name of this dfiminutive state capital sounds like a Roman Goddess; a different kind of mama lived in its fanciest mansion for a few years. Visitors arriving mainly by cruise ship, can hit the beaches or hike in rainforest, as well as enjoying chillier pursuits. But if you need a quick getaway, don't rely on four wheels. Name the city"

The four pictures are:

1. a bear with its teeth beared and probably snarling.
2. A blue and white painted (possibly wooden) with a pointy roof, sort of pyramid shape.
3. A marina with loads of those planes that can land on water (you know what I mean)
4. A probably renaissance painting of a lady with her baby, embracing him and breast-feeding him. Oh, and there's a chariot in t he top lefthand corner of the painting.

Can you help, please, it's driving me crackers now ....

Many thanks, Chox.

Actually, have just realised, it's Juneau (Alaska). Thanks for listening anyway, folks. Chox.

Yes, it is Juneau. I've been there.
