It does get a bit more difficult when the cities and national borders cease to be marked and all you've got to go on is the amorphous land mass of the continent.


The only one that REALLY stumped me was Faro.


27,863 on the second go-round.

27,486 on first try, but then, I m living in Europe, so I have advantages...

closest 12 miles, furthest 420 miles.

The third round was, of course, the hardest.....no boundaries. But fun.
