So who's up for a visit to Zaragoza, Spain to photograph the first street sign named after some silly car racing game that we're all somewhat familiar with?

Also, other streets named for Tetris, Space Invaders, Super Mario Bros, and Legend of Zelda. Not a bad one in the bunch.

Is it for sure that this street is named after a racing game?

It could also be named after a type of car, namely a GT car. You know, Grand Tourer or Gran Turismo.

Look at the names of the other streets.

I understand the blurred license plate and I'd understand if her face was blurred provided it was caught in frame, but...

...why blur her purse?

Reminds me of the cow with its face blurred.

I think that’s a baby.

Edit: Upon closer inspection I see it is actually a purse.
 
I want a Portal 2 street with real portals.

I considered that briefly, like maybe it was a baby wrapped in brown fabric, but the hold is peculiar and the bit below her arm isn't the way I'd expect to see fabric fall.

The face detection software Google used picked it up as a face. They not not manually blurring out plates, phone #s and faces.

I'm aware of this, but thank you for the input.
