Where am I ?
We noticed that many people leave their bicycles unlocked here. I think it is a situation much like a large school of fish. There are so many bikes that the odds of yours being stolen are miniscule as long as yours is in the same place as the rest of them and doesn’t stand out.
I think I saw a few bikes that were relatively good and new that had purposely ugly paint jobs to conceal their value. There are a lot of very old, very cheap bikes on the streets. We were out very early this morning and saw a line of scooters where a couple of them had tipped over. If Hollywood laws of physics worked in the real world, the whole row of 20-30 bikes would have fallen down. I’m not in Hollywood.

Hmm how many guesses am I limited to?
You basically gave away continent and it’s basically just guessing a few major cities.

How did I give away the continent?
You reminded me of the weird experience of last night. We were on a bus for awhile and it is amazing how the outskirts of cities seem to look the same all over the western world. I was going to try to make this contest really hard by taking pictures of Esso stations and McDonalds restaurants for the first couple of days.

I have no clue, but this picture makes me think of a certain movie (did you say Hollywood?) so I’m going to say Prague.
