Around the World (Game)

Hi Friends!

Since we have so many members from all over the world, I thought this might be fun, and maybe even educational, for those who need to brush up on their geography (ME).

Here is all you have to do:

You post a Country, City, Town or State etc., beginning with the last letter of that in the previous post.

For example:

WashingtoN
Niagara FallS
SingaporE

The next person would then post a place (country, city, town, or state, etc) that begins with letter "E"

I will start with my own state:

Minnesota

We have a TON Of games on page two that we haven't touched in forever. I will bump a few tomorrow for some variety. We tend to play the same ones, over and over, and that is fine, but there is also more FUN on page two! 🙂

Pat Conroy is the best.He is writing about the Death of the Great Santini,a sequel to the old one.His book,South of Broad, is as good as Prince of Tides.

Oh.................thanks for letting me know there will be a sequel to The Great Santini! Woot! 🥳 I remember back in the day, he would come out with a new novel approximately once every eight years, and I would wait for the next one and grab it up the minute it was published, lol.

My mom gave me South of Broad, because she started it and didn't like it for whatever reason, and the damn book just up and disappeared! I remember having it in the car, and I thought I brought it into the house. Then I went back out to the car to search and nothing! I haven't found it to this day, and I was just getting started. Will always be a mystery. The only thing I can think of is it somehow fell out of the car, and I didn't notice. 😢

Thanks for the info! 🙂

So glad you are joining us in this game, H80 But you have to take the LAST letter of the place posted in the previous post, so your letter would have been "R" Yours ends with "G" so now I have to post a place around the world that begins with G and Ii will write....

Germany! 😉

So now the next person's place must begin with letter Y

I love that area. My middle son and his GF lived there. They now live in a close by town. Also, he worked at the store there before he got his new store maybe 15 minutes away. It is a beautiful area, and the zoo is the largest in the twin cities area. They even have concerts there sometime. It is a great venue. 🙂

Shakopee (this is another pretty area where they have Canterbury Downs and a couple of casinos. When Shako first heard about this town, he laughed due to the name of the town, lol)
