Ok
My sweetie works for a company that has a promotion every year where the give away trips to the sales team\customer etc ...all expense paid.
Last year we went to Las Vegas...had a gas!!!!
this year the destination is unknown...but they did give out a flyer with some hints on it....
Attached is a scan....I cut out a building from the cityscape...as I have never see it.....City is in the US somewhere...

crappy res. but i could see it being in Chicago, San Francisco, or Detroit. And i am sure that there are buildings that shape in many other major cities/tourist areas also. Post the rest of the clues and lets see if we can't figure this out
On the first glance i'd say it's Las Vegas but they're not gonna send u to the same city twice. No idea. sorry
Okay...the theme of the trip is...sweets
There are all kinda of different candies...jelly beans...swirly lolly pops...candy necklaces....
I know the resolution is crappy....we have a new xerox doc centre...with a network scanner...and I am....uuummmm......................testing...yeah ...thats it ;)

It looks like the Library Tower here in Philadelphia
well with all of the candy references my first thought is to find out if there is a city that has a modo or is know to be somehow reltaed to candy, kinda like if it was a lot cheese i would think wisconsin. It could also be somehwere in Kansas. Candy references are a popular way to refer to the munchikin people from the wiz of oz, which would mean it could be OZ or Kansas. again all speculation.
