My guess: You are leaving from Valencia (as evidenced by the photo of Superman), flying out of LAX (the picture of the Hilton is the one near LAX), and going to Dubai, UAE to ride Formula Rossa at Ferrari World.

My "work" comes from the picture of the words "Roller Derby" with united.com in the upper corner. A quick google search of "Roller Derby" and United Airlines brought up tons of headlines about a roller derby captain who frauded her way into thousands of dollars worth of airline tickets. At first, I was frustrated, thinking this was a dead end, but after more digging, I found a link to "Hemispheres" in-flight magazine, where there was an article titled "Roller Derby" about how Randy Smith designed Formula Rossa and the challenges he faced. Also, the converter is one used in the UAE.

P.S. - Although this is a brand new account, I am not new to TPR. I formerly participated in the Forums frequently as "Easytoremember," however I have not posted in quite some time. Thats not to say I have been completely absent, just a lurker. I would have logged back into my old account, but I have no clue what my password is, and the e-mail address I used to create it is long gone, so I can't even recover the password. But I had to get in on this game, so I made a new one!

As much as they might not like it sometimes, Quebec is not a separate country from Canada. ;)

In addition to the stuff you said, if I recall correctly, Kidtums has a Dora the Explorer backpack, and if so, that's probably it in the picture where Robb misdirects you to look at his shoe. Dora, Spanish, QED, etc.

Isn't that just Elissa's bag?

I have no idea if it's Dora or not, but is Kidtums with them?

I would like to put forth a second guess, on the off chance that my first guess (Las Vegas) was incorrect.

So many hints point to Seattle, but I couldn’t think why you would be visiting Seattle, especially at a time of year when no coasters are open. But now it all makes sense - a ski trip! You’ve gone to Seattle to go skiing at Crystal Mountain and check out their awesome new gondola lift.

The Starbucks sign on Page 1 was the biggest clue, as Seattle is home to Starbucks.

All of the Asian references were big clues as well (the Japan flag, Hello Kitty, an exit sign with Asian languages listed before others), as Seattle has a very large Asian community.

JetBlue flies to Seattle.

Also important here is the name of the airline (which you may or may not have flown) - JetBLUE. And in the next picture, Superman is now painted red and BLUE. And in the flu shot picture, flu rhymes with BLUE. People always get the BLUES in Seattle, due to the gray dreary skies and frequent drizzles.

The Superman clue is also important because it is tall - like the Space Needle in Seattle. The Eiffel Tower picture is significant for the same reason.

And the mountain picture points to Mount Rainier, and the Cascade Mountains, and the Crystal Mountain ski resort, and SKIING.

The roller derby picture is important, as Seattle has a lot of female roller derby teams.

Page 3 has a picture of a shoe. The shoe looks grungy - and Seattle was the birthplace of grunge in the late 80s. Also, Page 1 has a picture of Elissa in black and white - and black and white photos were totally the look of the grunge movement.

I still can’t quite figure Paris Hilton’s connection to Seattle - this may have been to throw us off, or maybe…
Paris Hilton --> annoying blonde chick on drugs --> Courtney Love --> widow of Kurt Cobain, and therefore tied to Seattle.

OMG!!! Just read through all of this. Robb the Roller Derby picture was AMAZING! Yes the roller derby airline fraud was a very true thing! Australia does have roller derby teams, as a matter of fact, there are teams all over the world including the UK, France, Germany and even in Dubai. So I can't wait to see what the answer is and see how roller derby figures in all of this! Awesome clue Robb and Elissa or was it a clue!?!

There is no such thing as a donkey punch.

I'm going to jump in with a whole string of so far beens. My overall picture guess is the UAE via Australia.

Started out in LAX, this I formulated just by the fact that it is your home airport and because of the Hilton picture.

You flew United because the "Personal Space" on the kiosk behind Elissa is a UA slogan and because of the United.com in the Roller Derby Picture.

I think the McDonalds was a misleading picture meant to show that you were in for long flights. Seeing as a flight to Australia then to the UAE is over a day and a half of flying it was just a clue pointing to long flights.

I figured you were flying to UAE through Australia because it is not a silly halfway point for a layover and because of the Smart Carte reference and the Superman tower. I am inbetween on this however because Hong Kong is also viable through these references but i'll stick with Australia.

Also this may be important later but the Elissa tickets picture had two tickets meaning no Kidtums. This adds to the suspicion of a press related event for Ferrari world!

I figure on the UAE because of the Roller Derby picture pointing to Formula Rossa and the adapter.

Love these games you guys are awesome!

Well as Ferrari World is a distinct possibility, I think you are flying UA to IAD to connect with the direct UA flight to Dubai - then a quick drive along the coast to Abu Dhabi.
