Hey Pedro,

just as you did it with the .main-nav list items you now have to add the value inline-block to the display property of .main-nav itself. A block element that does not take up a full line is an inline-block element.

Like this:

header {
  text-align: center;
}
.logo {
  width: 110px;
  margin: auto;
}
.main-nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}
.main-nav {
  display: inline-block;
}
