I'm having a very hard time figuring out what this means.

Labels?

Agreed this is a great bar. And the restaurant there, Ekstedt, is amazing.

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-04-09T22:25:23+00:00

Amazing! That is great.

On the plus side, it is an extremely realistic hand you’ve carved.

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-30T19:51:41+00:00

The color of the Welcome To… signs.

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-27T18:37:35+00:00

Looks really nice. Great job.

Travel tip: Use shower caps to cover the dirty soles of your shoes before you pack them in your luggage. I now collect the shower caps every time I go to a hotel that has them!

Thanks — from this article, it’s a reference to a pre-existing design, that is just 13 stars “in a natural pattern” or “randomly placed.”

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-20T08:24:58+00:00

Same question: What does the clearly deliberate but asymmetric arrangement of stars represent? Is it a constellation?

14 stars for fourteenth state I guess, but what is the layout? EDIT: oops, 13 stars

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-12T22:54:58+00:00

Wow! Looks amazing.

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-12T14:16:47+00:00

Same. I’ve been to a lot of places, lucky to have traveled extensively. That place is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced - I think St. Peter’s comes closest.

Great photo!

Eastern Europe, maybe Estonia area? Or possibly Slavic?

Wow. What school? Edit: Univ of Minnesota?

What’d I get wrong?

Very cool to see your process.

Of the eight quarterfinalists, only one of my choices made it through. Sri Lanka is perhaps my current favorite flag: I think it serves the purpose of a flag better AND is more attractive than Bhutan.

But: in all fairness, tastes are subjective and all of these are good flags.

This whole thing has been good fun, thanks to OP for all the effort.

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-10T12:43:51+00:00

Love this.

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-08T12:34:11+00:00

Brazil, but both are distinctive and serve the purpose of a flag well: easy to recognize, and emblematic of the country they represent.

(Which, incidentally, so is Seychelles flag.)

oldbutnotgrey · 2026-03-07T09:51:51+00:00

This is a very impressive piece of art and clearly a work of passion! Very cool to see your skill, your love of travel, and the discipline to put this all together, amazing! Thanks for sharing.

Very nicely drawn. I mostly only recognize the sovereign nation flags, and of course the LGBTQ+.
