Mmmm... I love hot chocolate! : )
I had a very yummy one in Stockholm... but it was in the tiniest cup ever. I suppose it was because it was like pure melted chocolate!

Was that before or after the ice bar?:D

OK, now I've had it with this thread. First POTN gets me so into photography that I now have a bag of great equipment ($$$$$), now the WAIN thread makes me want to travel to these interesting places and explore the world. I better put my kids through college first before I start traveling.

I know! It's awful!
I'm thinking perhaps I don't want kids so I can spend all my money traveling and taking photos...

Hmmm... I think it was after.
And actually... I wonder if I was in Goteburg when I had the hot chocolate...
I'm trying to remember.
It was the king's birthday and they were having a big parade and my roommate for the trip and I got stuck in the street because no one would let us through. They all thought we wanted to stand in front of them but we just wanted to get out of the way. One woman even kicked me! It was scary and then later it was funny... only because we saw the rest of our group and they yelled for us and they let us in so we didn't get trampled by the horses. One of the girls took a photo of us trying to run across the street...

We got out of there and went to find the chocolate place because we'd seen it on a tour the day before. We needed it after the experience!

But back to the question: it had to have been after because we went to the Ice Bar the first night! : )

You started this thread, Tom, so you've only got yourself to blame!:D

No, the worst thing about WAIN isn't the beautiful photos, or the pains experienced in wanting to be where a particularly beautiful shot was taken, the WORST thing is knowing this game is here, being able to read the guesses, but NOT being able to see the photos!

It's the fact that our WEB filters here at work block most photo hosting sites. The filters consider them "Personal" sites". Probably because many of them are trying to piggy back on the success of Facebook, etc. instead of just being photo hosting sites.

Anyway, I LOVE this game, but it's real hard to play when all you see is a box with a red X, or worse yet, nothing at all, at least with the red X, I know a photo was supposed to be there!

I've just seen an interview on television with a blind man who is an ardent fan of Liverpool Football Club and I wondered how he enjoyed the games. Having read SoccerRef's post, I think I understand!:D

It's a good day if I'm looking down at the grass and not up at the roots.

Good work Tom! That is where I was.

Been there? If not, how on earth did you find it so quickly?

Over to you!

I've never been there.
I searched google images for: red glass sculpture.

I found a similar sculpture in yellow (external link), but the site mentioned the artisit's name "Chihuly"
So I added Chihuly to my search string. A few pages back I found this (external link)
