Please post pics, and a one-line description of where you are and when you are. If you can, put up the cover of your favorite book too! Let's try to keep this an organized thread of pics & locations to see (& brag) where Kindle is around the world! (Also, please sticky?) 2009/02/28 Grand Canyon, South Rim, Arizona, USA  |

I'm sitting in my jammies...in front of my computer...in FL. Not a majestic backdrop like yours, certainly not "picture worthy"!  |

I'm sitting in a hotel room in Fishkill, NY. No camera with me, but it's not really photo worthy anyways.

I'm at home in Orlando, getting some computer time in before it's bedtime for my munchkin... but I promise to take some pics when I go to Cincinnati in May... and if I ever get my ex-in-laws to take me to Disney soon I'll take one there!! (I refuse to pay to get in!) Very cool picture of you and your K2! |

Speaking of where in the world - when I first joined, I remember seeing some kind of map on Kindleboards - with little push-pins where members are located? I haven't been able to find it again, nor have I heard it mentioned. Was I just imagining it?

I think this is a great idea - and I bet when people take spring break or vacation you will see some posts - of course that means it will be awhile for me - no vacations on the horizon -- and all you would see here is melting snow right now |

At first Ford had formed a theory to account for this strange behavior. If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up.
After a few months' consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working.

I'm living in Italy right now. Loving my Kindle!! It for sure beats waiting 6-8 weeks for a 'normal' book to arrive. No whispernet here, obviously, but 5 minute delivery is not bad at all.. Thanks for posting that map. What a cool idea! Smiles, Rachel |

In the Intro/Welcome thread there is another thread of Where in the World are you! That is also another place the map is.

Here's mine taken on Tuesday in beautiful Pacific Grove, California. Alas, I'm back home now, in Oregon- equally beautiful in a different way!  |

Looking at that picture, I can see how handy a Kindle would be with a new baby in the house. That was so nice of you! |
