(This photo shows a "part" of a mystery object from my life. The challenge? Guess what the object is and the function of the object.

---

If you can, post in Spanish and English, and, if clues are needed I will post them "along the way" so keep your eyes "peeled". And, a new rule for my game friends - you can post "multiple times" of course but please - one guess per post! That gives everyone "present" a chance to have a "stab at it" and makes it easier for me to follow the thread and the answers. Thanks everyone

Gerbil ball

T-h-a-t is truly amazing! And do you know, if you "squashed" down your gerbil ball (jejeje) you would (visually) have something very much like my MO ...(had to say that in English) ps I think we call them "guinea pigs" . - nonombre, Aug 15, 2010

Gerbils are smaller than guinea pigs mate. - fontanero, Aug 15, 2010

Answer 5

The plastic/rubbery top of a sandal, perhaps? At least, I've seen some sandals that looked a bit like that. They didn't look very comfortable, though.

¿Tal vez la parte plástica/parecida a la goma de arriba de una sandalia? A lo mejor, he visto algunas sandalias así. Pero no me parecían muy cómodas.

Muy creativa Mac ...pero no, mi objeto misterioso no tiene nada que ver con las sandalias. - nonombre, Aug 15, 2010
