"Somewhere over the rainbow ..."
There were not that many guesses to the most difficult mosaic question, though the solution was neater than most. The abstract "painting" is a map of the very different twin city Baarle on the border between Belgium (yellow) and the Netherlands (blue). The Belgian side is called Baarle-Hertog, whereas the Dutch counterpart is referred to as Baarle-Nassau. Some houses in the city is split between the cities, and hence the countries, which once led to stores moving their entrance to benefit from certain country specific laws and regulations. Inside some stores it is possible to see a "rainbow pattern" similar to the one used at the European Championship in football, Euro 2000. The championship's mascot's face was given as a clue here at Klurbloggen. Correct answer: Baa (30 points)
