Where is this statue of Napoleon? The guesses should be pretty narrow with this one. Please comment your guesses and I’ll post the right answer later today. Good luck! It is the place of Napoleon’s birth in Ajaccio, Corsica. I guess it was an easy one.

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekends and the awesome Masters tournament (if you like golf). Where is this unreal and unspoiled white sand beach that has essentially been untouched for decades. Please comment your guesses and I will post the correct answer later in the day. Good luck! It is on Midway Island. The former US WWII military installation and current nature reserve is rarely visited by anyone except for the national park service. I was very lucky to have been able to get there and I hope to do the same thing in December to Wake Island.

Where are these picturesque ancient ruins? Please comment your guesses and I will post the correct answer later in the day. Good luck! The answer is the ancient and historic city Carthage, Tunisia. Once a great city and today there’s not much but you can still imagine what it must’ve been like. Plus the views and setting of the Mediterranean are perfect.

Where is this monument? Here’s a hint, it’s located in a world capital. Please comment your guesses. I will post the correct answer later in the day. Good luck! It is Ashgabat, Turkmenistan. Ashgabat is a brand spanking new mostly white capital city where you can’t take pictures of many things and need an escort/guide to go pretty much anywhere including to restaurants!

Where is this old town square and colorful restaurant? Comment your guess and I will post the correct answer later in the day. It is the old city or Ciudad Vieja of Havana, Cuba. Good job to those who guessed right. It is obviously off the tourist map for many Americans but a great destination that will hopefully open soon.

I am back home in New York and here is today’s picture of the day. Where are these awesome rock islands? Please comment your guess. I will post the correct answer later today. Good luck! The correct answer is Palau. Good job Ryan and Beth and all those who emailed me. Beth thanks for the great restaurant recommendation in Denver-the short rib was unreal. The Rock Islands of Palau are one of the most gorgeous places in the world to just cruise around and home to the famous jellyfish lake.

Please comment your guess as to the whereabouts of this unique and very cool stilt village. I will post the correct answer later today. Good luck! The correct answer is Ganvie, Benin on Lake Nokoue. Easily the best (and only) tourist attraction in Benin and a nice way to spend an afternoon exploring by dugout canoe before heading to neighboring Togo or Nigeria.

I am back from LA, albeit still on LA time, but here is today’s “Picture of the Day”. Please comment your guess as to where this mountain lake is and I will post the correct answer later. The correct answer is the Marguzor Lakes near Penjikent, Tajikistan. This was obviously a tough one and all were good guesses and great job Michael!

In honor of my friend Baumer, who specially requested it, I am bringing back the “Where am I” pictures of the day. Please comment your guess where you think this is and I will put the answer up later in the day. It is Anse Source d’Argent on La Digue Island in the Seychelles…quite possibly the nicest islands in the world and certainly one of the world’s great and most picturesque beaches. Good job, next time it will be harder!
