    Here's a little game we can play. I'll post up an image, and you need to guess where it is (country & locality if possible). No one can post another image until the prior one is correctly identified. Please don't be too obscure.

    Ok, here's the first one to get you going.

    It looks like some sort of Hippie carnival festival thing in a tropical area (has palm trees atleast, so probably coastal) where the people are White and some are fat and they speak English.

    Its somewhere in the United States along the coast. I don't know where though.

    humm, my guess is China (duh!), but I wouldn't have a clue where. And why the parade of uniforms? Looks like street cops (maybe it's the white gloves?). I'd say Beijing, but the sky is too clear...

    Good observation about the sky. That is the key part. Not Beijing though.

    Bird, I'm thinking Tibet. The buildings are two colors, Portola style, so Lhasa?

    The Chinese lettering on everything fooled me, as I focused on that. But it's now part of China, so I guess Tibetan culture is being ignored as usual.

    Congratulations Skip!
    This is indeed Lhasa, Tibet and it is indeed very close to the Potala Palace.
    It was sad however to see how the Chinese wanted to show their military superiority.

    Next photograph, anyone?
