The gordian knot
I think I know what has happened. Because Frank refused to oversee this thread in jack-booted style, it has been left somewhat open to interpretation.
Ted has simply assumed that because the Greeks, at the time of their utmost power, controlled a wide swath of Asia as well as the Helenistic world, that Jordan and Greece WERE the same country, as they were under the same control. It's an understandable mistake, and I'm happy to first-assist Frank here Tony |

Snap!
Well in the time it took me to write that out someone moved things further, so I will continue this in the spirit of Frank's Yugo.
Italy > I'll go Iceland. I also have no idea how to post a picture. I'm a luddite. But picture Lord-of-the-Rings geography and women who are supposed to be hot and blonde, but are not. Tony |

Just got back from Iceland myself. Definite LOTR scenery and wide open spaces between towns. So will see Iceland and raise you Spain. Spaghetti Western scenery and actual beautiful women - especially in Zamora for some reason...

From past experience, trust me, all rules are considered optional by Ted.
The same leniency will not be granted to others. Where are the pictures? Corporal Boil's assistance is appreciated to facilitate moving forward. My updates may be infrequent for several days, but the list in post #1 will be maintained.

Hey guys, I did not violate Frank's "rules". And, Tony here has given us a history lesson. 2300 years ago, the Greeks occupied Asia Minor, of which Jordan was part of. In fact, my parents were born in Asia Minor in the Greek town of Smyrna. TED Z . |

I & i
Wow, Smyrna! I had to look that up. Now in Turkey, per Wikipedia.
Since we're on Morocco, which I have been to, I will swing it back "our way" and say Jamaica. I also vow to figure out how to scan, and post pictures. When I was in Jamaica, at age 14?15? I thought it would be cool to have my hair braided and those little beads put in them. I'm not sure you want to see those pictures. Anyway, Jah Rastafari! |

Although Egypt has already been mentioned, someone stated this thread needed more pictures. These I took in Egypt in October 1980.

Jeez,
first the USSR becoming the "Stan" brothers. Then Greenland is really just Denmark without Copenhagen Georgia used to be a state north of Florida, now it's a country north of Somalia. Have you been to Yugoslavia? You thought so, but since it doesn't exist anymore you say you now have been to Croatia, before it even existed. Really??? And lest we not forget Denny went to Hawaii and thought it was a foreign country. So if Jordan was part of Greece, how many countries were just Byzantine? If I owe Ted an apology, it is offered. Being the umpire in this game will continue until someone in the stands starts yelling, "Kill the Umo".

I have been to Canada. Went on a month long camping/fishing adventure. Been to the Netherlands many many times. I have a ton of pictures.
Pics in order are from. Leiden-They have one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world. Apeldoorn- Out front of the Apenheul Zoo. This place is awesome and has many animals roaming freely around the zoo. Amsterdam Flower Market-Learned the hard way you can not buy loose bulbs and bring them back to the US. Zandvoort-Mainly a German tourist destination with an amazing beach(clothing optional). Last a picture of Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam. Stayed in a house boat behind in on one trip. |
