    Same here. I only got 60% because I had no idea what was "up" in London, and I second guessed the desert view city. Haven't even been to several of those places, so, I did my best. These are MEAN challenges, migflanker...but I like them.

    Oh I’m shocked Mr. NYC. Personally I noticed the radiator cap.

    Darn, I only got 50%. Then again, I haven't been to most of those places so I guess that wasn't terrible.

    Nothing much to go by. Should have paid more attention to the question like which LAKESIDE view, could have ruled out Seattle for instance. Noticed too I saw a MOSQUE in one of those pictures, so I put ISTANBUL, TURKEY. Got Vegas because I've seen that view a few times from the airplane, plus what other country has everything cities scattered in BLOCK form? First one had a view of a river, so I picked LONDON thinking the Thames river but got it wrong. Downtown's Chicago, Detroit, Toronto all tricky because all with water fronts and huge skyscrapers.
