Spot The Problem

"One overcast afternoon in London, I looked out my office window, and wondered if there was more to life than watching cars go by. I contemplated taking a cruise around the world, but was prone to terrible sea-sickness. Then, I thought of a trip to Africa, a continent I had always dreamed of visiting. It was a short flight away, but a strike at the airport meant all flights were indefinitely canceled. I looked out again, and noticed the bright orange flowers in the middle of the road. Maybe it was not so bad after all. I decided I was just fine where I was".

There is something not quite right about the write-up above. Can you spot the problem?

 

 

 


Answer: The writeup says "Overcast afternoon in London". Cars drive on the left side of the road in UK, whereas in the picture you see cars on the right side of the road. 

The only ones to get this right were: ciaobella and Mhlearning.

if he looks out the office window than he would be in the middle or right on the side toured the bottom floor.

His office is right above the road? Unless the building is shaped funky, his office wouldn't be directly over the road like in the picture.

A strike does not mean flights are indefinatly cancelled. The flights are only cancelled for a short period of time

The office window couldn't be where the pic was taken. It would be in the middle of the road. (Just guessing!)

There's bright orange cones in the middle of the road or it's the yellow flowers.
