Where in the world?
Posted on Jan 6th, 2008 by Allison (Travel, Whatever)

I wondered if anything would be able to pull me away from my love affair with and/or addiction to online paper snowflakes this year - besides carpal tunnel.    I did find a new object of affection which, unfortunately, also puts strain on my mouse hand… but has been entertaining nonetheless.

World MapTry your hand at Travel IQ - the online geography game! 

My first score was 6, then 8… and now I consistently get to level 12, but haven’t topped the required 60,000 points to complete level 12 (the final one) yet. 

I do, however, know where Mogadishu is.  As well as Togo, Jakarta and the Taj Majal.     See how you do - then return and report!

For some non-carpel tunnel online fun, check out my brilliant nephew Sam’s new blog - Jacob’s Escalator.   Be sure to read the Prologue and Disclaimer.

This is so much fun- I’ve always enjoyed geography!
My score was 24,791- completed 6 out of 12 levels. I’m ashamed… I used to know almost all of them in 8th grade :)
And yay for Sam!!

I don’t even want to try this, I suck at geography. I don’t even know where Ohio is.

But, Michelle, you know where the Leaning Tower of Pisa is… there are lots of Italy locations in the quiz :)

Try it… you’ll like it… LOL

Sorry- I was reading the wrong place- my score was around 175,000 :) It was 24,000 for that ROUND. Haha

Okay, I will try it when I’m feeling a little smarter… I do know where Florence Italy is and Orem Ut.
