Marilyn's Photos - Aug 5 2025 - Where's Waldo Now?

 

Where's Waldo?  How old was he in 1987? It looks like it started out as Where's Wally? in the U.K. and Where's Waldo in the U.S.  The originator/author is Martin Handford. As the series goes on, Wally progressively becomes harder to find, reducing his size on the page and surrounding him by more characters.  There were 225 characters in the first book to 850 in the last book's first page. 

There's a great picture of attendees at the 2011 Where's Waldo? World Record event in Dublin, Ireland - all dressed as Wally/Waldo. In 2009 a re-creation took place in Chicago, featuring all the characters hiding throughout downtown Chicago.  

Waldo came to mind after I saw this dog picture in the Bing feed - find the cat in the picture.  Is there only one cat?  Are all the small-eared ones cats, or just the one with whiskers?  

 
Here's the opposite sort of picture - a little bit of found grunge.
