something is wrong

it works until I add the li command and it puts them side by side but it keeps saying the footer nav is off again?

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.footer-nav li{
float:left;
}
.logo
{float:right;
}


.clearfix::after {
  content: "";
  display: table;
  clear: both;
}
index.html

    <body>

            <img class="logo" src="city-logo.svg" alt="logo">
            <ul class="footer-nav">
                <li><a href="#">Ice cream</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">Donuts</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">Tea</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">Coffee</a></li>
            </ul>

        </footer>

So you have it right but you shouldn't be adding the 'li' into the existing footer-nav. 

/* first challenge */

.footer-nav {
   float: left;
}
/* here you are targeting the class footer-nav */ 
.logo {
   float: right;
}

/* second challenge */

.footer-nav li {
   float: left;
}
/* here you are targeting the list items inside the footer-nav class */

Does that make sense?
