The aerial view looks like a farm. The Leaning Tower looks like a grain silo.

It was an interesting quiz though.

I'll just say I got more wrong than I got right. Geography is not my strong suit. Thank God for my Garmin

I missed 5, and sadly one I missed was The Alamo, which I have seen from the ground a number of times.

I also missed the Cape Canaveral launch pad, and we lived a few miles from there for 3 years. Never saw it from the air, though. There are several launch pads, and only one is shown, but I'm sure it wouldn't have helped to know which.

Thanks for the interesting link!

I got 11/16 correct. Not bad since I guessed at most. I was very young when I saw the US side of the falls. I remember it smelled like a lot of dead fish.

Not me I'm just an average site seer. However the places I guessed I have flown over. This was fun, thanks for posting.

I got 80%. I don't know ball fields at all, so that was a total guess. Most of those places I have not been to.

I just missed 1. But it was pure luck... I did a lot of guessing.
