Since everyone’s staying home, let’s pretend we’re off on an International trip. My books are set in places I’ve visited, and I’m sharing some of my photos this month.
Identify the location of the picture below. Remember to register your answer by clicking “Leave a comment” at the top of this page and then write your reply (I’ll approve comments at the end of each day and reveal the locale in the following blog).
Correct answer receives a point. If you’re not certain, go ahead and guess! I’ll be posting a different photo, along with a hint, every day this month. Whoever has the most points on April 30th will receive a prize (you’re not winning the lotto, dear people, but I will mail you a small gift which will include a modest Amazon card). In the event of a tie, a randomly generated number will decide the winner. So, be sure to check back here each day, & let’s see who can . . .
Name That Location:
Hint: I took the bird’s eye shot of this capital city high above the sky line, but if you look closely you can see a well-known landmark. It’s one of the priciest places in the world for real estate, and it’s the largest city in this country. Known as a center for banking and insurance, its roots stretch to thousands of years before Christ. Can you name this city?

~Yesterday we visited Lucerne, Switzerland. Amy Reade, K. Nichols, Catherine Conn, & Sharon K. Connell recognized the location.~

It’s London, Catherine. Several folks also thought it was Zurich. I took the picture from the Eye.

I’m really stumped by this one, but I’m going to guess London.

You have guessed correctly, Sharon! Bravo. I took the photo from the Eye. I believe if you look closely, you can spot Buckingham Palace.

Zurich, Switzerland. Did you visit the headquarters for Sprungli? They have wonderful Swiss macarons! Also, some of the best chocolate! 🙂 https://www.spruengli.ch/en/locations/paradeplatz-headquarters.html

It’s London, Lisa. I took the photo from the Eye! I’ve only been through Zurich on the train & I cannot remember if we even stopped at the station.

There were so many cranes in the sky when we were there – lots of buildings going up.

It’s unusual to stump you! It’s London, taken from the Eye!
