I don't know if this already exists on the forums or not, but basically this is how it all works:

You find a distinct monument/building/structure on Google Earth, take a snapshot, and post it here. Others have to guess what the structure is and from which city/country. The person posting the snapshot (spyer) must choose something that is known to people (i.e. not a random street in another continent).

I will start off first:

Are you trying to say that it is the Caribbean?

I may have put that there just to confuse people.
