Coffee Break

You stand in the hot desert sand of this ancient site feeling dwarfed by the Great Pyramid of Khufu and the Sphinx, as the Nile River flows nearby. Where are you?

You are in northeastern Tanzania, on the highest mountain in Africa. Coffee and plantains are cultivated on its lower slopes. One of Ernest Hemingway's most famous stories is set in this region. Which mountain are you standing on?

You are gazing at the unique architecture of the Doges' Palace, feeding hundreds of pigeons, and listening to the pealing bells of this city's landmark cathedral. Where are you?

You focus your camera on the Christ the Redeemer statue atop Corcovado Mountain, when the setting sun on Guanabara Bay reminds you that it's time to head back to your hotel and put on your Carnival costume. Which city are you celebrating in?

You are shopping for souvenirs at the Grand Bazaar of this city once known as Constantinople, when you are reminded of yesterday's visit to the site of Troy, in the western part of this country. Which city are you in?

You are aboard a barge navigating the intricate canal system of this European city, which consists of about 90 islands linked by more than 1,000 bridges. Which city are you floating through?

You loved reading Anne of Green Gables as a child, so naturally you have trekked here to see the Green Gables farmhouse, located in Canada's smallest and most densely populated province. Which province are you in?

You are overlooking the 2,000-year-old Banaue Rice Terraces on Luzon, the largest of this archipelago's more than 7,100 islands. Where are you?

You are feeding a giant tortoise, while overhead several species of finches flit about. Charles Darwin, the British naturalist, spent many weeks here in 1835--you can see how the abundance of unique wildlife on these Pacific islands inspired his 1859 work, Origin of Species. Where are you?

You are in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, beholding the magnificent sight of Ayers Rock, one of the world's largest monoliths--it is 1,142 feet high and 2.2 miles long--when an emu runs by and catches your attention. Where are you?
