The answers to today's Strands, game #97, are BEACH CAMP POPSICLE CARNIVAL 
LEMONADE HOPSCOTCH SPANGRAM: SUMMER My rating: Confused My score: Perfect 

Not for the first time, I'm completely baffled by the reasoning here. For 
those of you who have stumbled across this column for the first time, I'm 
based in the UK  and I accept that the cultural differences between the UK 
and US may explain my inability to understand what's going on here. Or 
rather, I won't accept it; it shouldn't be the case that the game is so 
heavily skewed towards one country. Yes, the NYT is a US newspaper, but the 
internet is worldwide and the whole Wordle phenomenon was to a large extent 
based on the fact that it appealed to people everywhere. This this is just 
odd. 

Exhibit A: why is HOPSCOTCH here? What does that have to do with SUMMER? Does 
HOPSCOTCH mean something different in the US than it does in the UK? And why 
is 'Beat the heat' the theme clue? A POPSICLE might help you beat the heat, 
sure  and indeed that was the first word I found. But how does CARNIVAL help 
you beat the heat? Or CAMP? It's a weird mish-mash of words. I solved it, but 
I almost wish that I hadn't.
