Ready to play?
Since everyone’s staying home, let’s pretend we’re off on an International trip. My books are set in places I’ve visited, and I’m sharing some of my photos this month.
Identify the location of the picture below. Remember to register your answer by clicking “Leave a comment” at the top of this page and then write your reply (I’ll approve comments at the end of each day and reveal the locale in the following blog).
Correct answer receives a point. If you’re not certain, go ahead and guess! I’ll be posting a different photo, along with a hint, every day this month. Whoever has the most points on April 30th will receive a prize (you’re not winning the lotto, dear people, but I will mail you a small gift which will include a modest Amazon card). In the event of a tie, a randomly generated number will decide the winner. So, be sure to check back here each day, & let’s see who can . . .
Name That Location!
Hint: Founded in 509 & the site of the murder of Thomas Becket, the place may be most famous for Geoffrey Chaucer’s bawdy tales about pilgrims’ experiences while travelling here (written between 1387 & 1400).
~Yesterday’s photo was taken from atop St. Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican, the world’s smallest country. K. Nichols, Sharon K. Connell, Lisa Maliga, Martha De Meo, & Amy Reade got the correct answer. ~

Easy, peasy this time. Canterbury Cathedral in Canterbury, Kent. I red Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales in high school and did my term paper on it. 🙂

Congratulations! You are right, again. The tales aren’t easy to read, either. That’s awesome.
