Today’s post is much less about our adjustment back to Seattle and more about introducing Romain to several Seattle landmarks. Let’s see how many you can identify in this picture.
Try to find:
– the Space Needle
– the Seattle skyline
– Lake Union
– a sailboat
– I-5
– a cheeseburger from Dick’s Drive-in
– an attractive Frenchmen (not technically a Seattle landmark but it should be)
– blue sky (oh, technically that’s not a Seattle landmark, either)
– two American girls
For extra credit, identify the location of today’s photo. Double bonus points if you are able to do this and do not live or have not lived in Seattle.
Now on the subject of re-adjusting, is a cheeseburger from Dick’s part of that process? For you Seattleites, consider that to be an essay question opportunity.

Can I answer? Thank you so much for all Andy !
Of course, Romain!!
I see everything but I-5 and the two American girls, those look like French girls to me.
If you click on the picture (to enlarge it), you can see a strip of concrete just above the water line on the left side, appearing to come out of Romain’s head. I’m pretty sure that’s I-5.
What a fantastic picture with the sun is just the right place!
Take a look at Romain’s blog (and pictures) at http://2011seattle.wordpress.com/.
Looks like Gasworks Park to me. Not so bad having only been to Seattle three times in my life!
Ding, ding, ding!!!
I confess, when I ran my cursor across the picture to enlarge it, it was titled “Gasworks Park.” I have never actually been there and of course did not recognize it! My little joke…
Ha! I labelled it that way on purpose, wondering if anyone would catch on. You did but then fooled me. Good for you!!
I love how well known these landmarks are!
