2. Egypt (the Great Pyramids of Giza)

5. Australia (sydney opera house << but designed by a Dane lol)
6. USA (Statue of Liberty ... but made in France)
7. Switzerland (a mountain with trees & stream... most mountains run north south.. but by the shadows from trees i can tell the range runs east-west.. so that leaves Switzerland or Nepal.. but the trees r wrong for Nepal Laughing )
8. Germany (Brandenburg gate)
9. India (taj Mahal)
a. Spain (barcelona cathedral)
b. Russia (st basil's cathedral)
c. Netherlands (this windmill could be from many countries.. but i presume this is a dutch windmill from marsh reeds in the foreground & the pich of the roof is too shallow for a spanish windmill Wink )
