Game: Instructables Robot, World Explorer
The Instructables Robot loves wheeling around all day at home, but it yearns to see more of the world! It's been to a couple of interesting places in the past, but that's not enough.
Our challenge to you: what's the coolest place you can bring the Instructables Robot? We want you to take a picture of the Robot in these locations and post them here. Instructables at the top of a tower? Instructables around the world? You decide!
If you've ever seen the movie Amelie or heard of the travelling gnome prank, think of the various places the gnomes are photographed. The Robot could take those gnomes any day.
The Robot could be a print out (see hi-res Robot images), an Instructables t-shirt, a sticker, a paper model, anything. Then, you simply need to take a picture of the setting with the Robot in it.
Final rule: No Photoshopping!
See below for some ideas. The Robot has its bags packed and is ready to go...

Today we went to a model jet airplane meet in Brooklyn, New York City. The SST is the one from the Intrepid aircraft carrier museum currently undergoing renovations in drydock. You can see the massive Rolls-Royce turbojet engine. Of course, we took our new Robolocity Roaming Instructables Robot along for the pictures.
You can see picture comments here.

A most excellent idea, joshf. I iblers are using the paper model, they could write the url on the model, then abandon it somewhere unusual, after ontaining photographic evidence.

I'll help start this out! I took these in Salina, Kansas out on my grandpa's (who is 100 years of age) farm. I had an idea of a game like this, but never started it.

You picked Kansas for the coolest place you could bring the Instructables robot? Wow. Maybe I'll take him up to the balcony of the Kansas Capitol Building-They recently renovated the steps.
