No, I live 5m below mean sea-level (now, let's see if anybody can pin-point 
where that may be  :-)  )

Yes, the pov image looked so very familiar to me, I immediately thought of 
Waterland.

Well, it *could* be Daytona, FL, which is below sea level (I went to 
school there), but I'm guessing that's not where you are. ;-)

I'll guess Nijmegen, NL. :-)

That is above sea level. I tried some website that matches
postal code to hight and that gave a whopping 24 meters
above sea level for some random point in Nijmegen.

I also found this image: http://www.ahn.nl/demo/ahn-nederland1.jpg
