Since we’re all still 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: This spot serves as a port city, dockyard, and naval base. Mainly built on an island, it has an odd nickname. Now home to several well-known museums, it’s history can be traced to Roman times. For a period, it was known as the world’s greatest naval port as well as the world’s most fortified city. Can you name it?

~Yesterday we visited Orvieto, Italy. Sharon K. Connell, K. Nichols, & Amy Reade recognized the photo.~

Thanks, Amy. I took this on board our ship after we’d crossed the English Channel. It’s of Portsmouth, England.

For some reason I didn’t get your email yesterday, nor did I see this on Twitter, but that town is Portsmouth. Sorry I’m late.

I was a little worried when I didn’t hear from you yesterday since you’ve been so consistent. Thanks for playing, Sharon, and you are correct.
