Level 53
Aug 30, 2017
I did the same, then had a flash of insight. I pictured Ecuador in my mind and then realized that one of the islands to the left has one of the distinctive shapes of the Galapagos. Hard to notice if you're not looking for it.

Should have gotten the first and third though. D'oh! .. 1st one just couldn't place, and the 3rd I think I would have gotten except it looked like an island. Should have seen that pointy tip on the bottom left... that kind of gives away that it's a peninsula. Doesn't look like coastline. But I didn't look closely enough.

As a Dutch person I'd like to think that everybody knows the shape of the Netherlands as it is quite unique, but this quiz proves that I´m kinda wrong lol
