Weekly Travels 22-23

Wow, you certainly know your stuff folks! And even though several names got bandied about (even Laura Ingalls of ‘Little House on the Prairie’ got mentioned by my Mum), the correct answer was of course: Anne of Green Gables. A fictional character living on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Yamini and Debby get half a point each (no Canada mentioned). Hilary gets 3/4 point, Gera gets a whole point. But I think we can all agree that Millie & Walter deserve a point and a half for their answer!
My story? I saw the series years and years ago in my teens, but only read the book quite recently. I know a series is out there, but I don’t know if anybody can surpass Colleen Dewhurst as Marilla Cuthbert.

On to this week’s challenge and thanks to the world of postcrossing it is a location one again. I may or may not have visited this place. So where is it? Have you ever been? Tell us your story. Answer next week.

  2. The newer series got quite good but took some getting used to after the older, beloved one with Megan Follows.

    Ooh ooh, That's the Treasury at Petra! Famous on many films and telly progs and is Jordan's equivalent to the Pyramids of Egypt... I've not been, but much seen! YAM xx

  5. Is it Karnak or Luxor in Egypt? I did a trip down the Nile in 2009 but can't remember the names of all the places I visited.

  6. No idea this week I am afraid, but it is the Middle East, Egypt, Jordon etc., the list could go on. Looks an amazing building.
