Paul Krugman is on vacation, on a bike and twittering

[Cyrano]

A few days without one of Paul Krugman's NY Times editorials is a few days too many. Can't wait till he gets back.

Google Paul Krugman to see the twitter replies, -- most kind, -- a few trolls.

1. Even Though He's Only Been Away a Short While, I Miss His Insight and Wisdom

2. "I'm going up the country, babe, don't you wanna go?"

3. Most Twitter replies think it's somewhere in the U.K.

4. No gun nuts to worry about. Sweet.

5. Looks like Scotland. The road marker. nt

6. British Isles, at least - red reflector indicating the left hand side of the road

for oncoming traffic. I don't know if the Republic of Ireland uses identical posts or not.

7. Those cars look American ?

8. The lighthouse gives a clue, I guess.

Is that guy playing find me if you can with us?

The lighthouse should help narrow things down. I don't know much about lighthouses and whether the design mean anything. The try to his left could also provide a clue for those that know trees. I could not make out any tags on the cars, but you seem to be right, the tags appear to be on the real of the car. Aren't most British Isle tags on the front?

9. Yes all European cars have front and back facing licence plates. Might well be Newfoundland as was

suggested earlier.

10. So the light house would be a Great Lakes lighthouse?

I travelled across NewFoundland once, it seemed mostly landlocked except maybe the north most and southernmost. Could it be Nova Scotia, maybe Prince Edward Island or a coastal part of the NS province? The road that he was on in a photo does look like what I saw on Prince Edward Island.

11. Is the wall (in the first photo) something you would see there, because you would often see

something like that in Ireland or Scotland ?

12. I don't remember.

I remember that the road signs were different from here in the states, but I don't remember what they looked like. I drove through the lower southeast part of NewFoundland and ultimately to PEI after a visit to the Cape Bretton highlands. A large part of Nova Scotia is very Scottish and the roads are small, but again, I don't remember the road signage that I saw while there.

14. Not sure when that was posted, but this from 15 hours ago is surely Scotland

(Inverlussa being on the Isle of Mull too. West coast of Scotland for people who want to know - Iona and Staffa (Fingal's Cave) are just off it; south west end of the Great Glen)

13. The lighthouse is a dead ringer for the one at Cape May, NJ...

His photo appears to be taken from a bit back in its parking lot, one which has a wooden fence around it. Google Street View doesn't quite go into the lot, but you can get the idea here:

That doesn't match the first photo, if that was taken in the UK as some suggest. He's wearing different color helmets in the two pictures: maybe the lighthouse was from a separate trip.
