    The only Google entry on "Elodia" that makes sense, says that Elodia is a girl's name of Spanish origin. I was expecting it to be a place.

    I was expecting it to be the name of a restaurant but all I got was a name for a girl also Bakersgma. Do you think it is Spanish or Italian?

    Not what I typically think of as majolica. Faience, perhaps?

    I agree, ascot. More faience than majolica.

    okay say the birds may be pink flamingos, are those green things bird plumes or are they carrying something in their mouths

    Florida sounds interesting komokwa that beast looks more like an alligator with that pointed snout I believe that there are flamingos in Florida from watching Miami Vice over the years.

    Given the crocodile and sombrero, I would think Latin America somewhere. Restaurant not unlikely.

    Fitting in, usually a name associated with Spanish culture.

    No alligators or crocs in Spain! Chap's hat is South American too.
