Where in the world?

There  was a very welcome Fathers Day gift this year, 
a world globe.....

not just any globe but it had to be a Topography Globe-

one that had all the raised surfaces depicting mountains and the like.

Well we found just the perfect one and it has been in constant use ever since......

We have had Grandparents travelling around Europe and have followed their travels.......

Excitedly we have family migrating from one side of our Continent to our side,holidaying along the way....{insert squeal with delight}

and finally we are now beginning to find out a little about a big event being held here in our own state next month.

CHOGOM

This includes heads of almost every Commonwealth country - 53 in total converging on our state of Western Australia.

I thought it may be a good idea to bring ourselves up to speed with some of these countries and where they might be in this world of ours....

So tonight over dinner the globe was placed back on the table ( where most of our looking is done)

and we spun it around and around trying to locate as many as we could find.

I am thinking that maybe a little "googling" will be in order to find out some fun facts about each country too.

How about you ...do you love to travel the world even if it is only at the family dinner table?
