Mystery Cam: Anybody Hungry?
Well, here we go. The mid-morning hunger is setting in.
So here's this week's picture. Yup. There it is.
The thing that struck me the most about this is ... well, the picture itself. I didn't expect this place to look like this. I don't know if I expected fields of potatoes or what. (Of course, I've never been there, so how would I know?)
Anyway, this particular place spices up its long, boring winters with a carnival -- begun in 1924 by an Olympic athlete who called this place home. Most people don't think this area is boring, though, because it attracts tourists who come to enjoy year-round outdoor activities. And although the city is small, it's not too far from an urban hub.
OK, that's all you're getting. Remember, if these clues weren't enough, you can always dig through our state and country Netcam pages to try to find this cam. We have two leftover Woody Allen videos for the first two winners ("Interiors" and "Stardust Memories") -- and the first three correct respondents will be named next week. So get to work!
E-mail me your guesses -- I need the distraction from my empty tummy.
Last Week
Well, guess what. (No, not seriously. You already have one thing to guess. Get to work!) Edd flew the coop again -- this time literally. As I type, he's strolling down the streets of Paris, sipping café and nibbling a croissant, no doubt. Anyway, he left me the location of last week's Mystery Cam -- it was Bonaire, an island in the Dutch Antilles. And it proved to be darn hard, too -- only a few people guessed right. I wish I could explain his clues to you -- but I can't. I forgot to get the full explanation from Edd before he left the country. If you're really fed up about the "salt" reference (and many of you may be -- the vast majority of you guessed Salt Lake City, Utah), you can e-mail him and ask. The winners were: Alice C. Parker, Maggie Rioux and Jim Jordan -- and, impressively, Jim was inventive and ambitious enough to seek Bonaire e-cards and send them to Edd and I!This Week's Clues
