The Mystery Puzzle

We got this puzzle as a Christmas gift from Alida. It's challenging because the picture on the box is not the same as the picture on the actual puzzle, but it gives you hints of what will be on the puzzle. Here's what the box showed us.

And this (below) is what the puzzle turned out to look like. I was surprised how much I usually use the picture on the box to orient me as to what goes where. It was a fun (and sometimes a bit frustrating) challenge! I'd never seen a puzzle like this before. Thanks, Alida! Another first!

That looks like fun in a challenging way. How long did it take to put together?

It took us a few days.
