A new forum game involving geography. Rules:

1. You can't repeat a state or country, use each one once.
2. You can only post again once FOUR people have posted.
3. You must follow all other forum rules.

Here is how it works:

BAW: Florida
KP: Lake Okochobee, Everglades, Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, Georgia.

Kooky is listing 5 things about Florida. You can say what other states/countries border it, waterways, waterways that border the state/country, and prominent features (for example, in Wyoming you could say Yellowstone National Park) You can make a combo of these 4 things, using as many and as few of them as you want. As long as they total 5, you are good.

KP (on same post from above): United Kingdom.
GG: *Lists 5 things about UK* Cote D'Voir
MD: *Lists 5 tihngs etc....


So that is the gist of it. (Yes, I know I just used mods.) Also, UK, Florida, and Cote D'Voir can still be used.

Let me start.

Michigan.

Uhhh... Guys... You can't do cities. Lancing and Mystic don't count, but I guess you misunderstood. No capitals or cites.

Okay. Replace Mystic with Connecticut River.

Yes, I know you are Canadian. But Beverly Hills is a CITY. NO CITIES! Disneyland is okay, as it is a prominent feature.

So... Italy.

San Marino
Tiber River
Leaning Tower of Piza
Meditteranean Sea
France

Sorry, I had Rodeo Drive in mind, but mixed them up as they're both for the filthy rich.

Lesson learned: not to play forum games late at night :mad:

Lol. No prob. It is Rhodeo Drive, not Rodeo drive. But, no harm done.

I live in the Los Angeles area. We spell it Rodeo Drive. I've been there, but not in years.
