Funemployment Diary, Entry #18: Hints of My Activities and Whereabouts

I’ve been getting emails and Facebook messages asking about the Secret Side Trip I’m currently on. I thought I’d share some photographic hints.

To make things a little easier, here’s another hint: I took the colour photos. The black-and–white ones are simple Google Images finds.

Another hint: at the time of this writing — 11:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time, which is not necessarily the time zone I’m in — the temperature is 13 degrees C.

I took both colour photos in this post yesterday.

Also noteworthy: there are a lot of bicycles and cafes in the area.

I’m having fun here, and I’ll eventually be able to tell all. In the meantime, have fun guessing!

  • This would be so much easier if you'd stop scrubbing the Exif metadata from your photos, Joey. *eye-roll*

  • I guess I'm really patient because I'm just waiting to hear your story when you can reveal it :)

  • John - there's only one place in North America that specific train car runs. :)

  • I'd recognize those Caltrain seats anywhere. And five bucks says that's University Avenue.

  • All comments on entry #17 have disappeared. How secret is this really?

    Re. the commuter train, are you writing "Source Code"? In the language of K+R?

  • So, I'm bored at work, and I managed to find the hotel from the previous post.

    I know the train in the picture, and did a Google image search for hotel lobbies at some of the places it stops. Can I say which hotel it is?

  • Oh, it wasn't the search for hotel lobbies that found it. It was a search for hotels with red pillars. Google is really good at finding the random stuff I tell it to look for!
