This new series is a throwback to the game, “Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?” I will give a brief description of a place, including its latitude and longitude and several “interesting” facts about the location. I will also try to include a picture or two from my visit to the place. You, the reader, can then hazard a guess to answer the question posed in the game.

I will reveal the correct location on the following day. Hopefully, this type of post will encourage interaction and perhaps stimulate comments. Good Luck!

The answer to yesterday’s place (#128) is West Point, New York, USA

Where in the World is Gary?  #129

This place is the capital of Andalucia. It contains the largest Gothic cathedral in the world, and Christopher Columbus “may be” buried here.

Roman Emperors Hadrian and Trajan were born nearby. Artists Velasquez and Murillo were born here. The lone, remaining tower of the medieval fortifications of this place is called the Tower of Gold.
