vicman Posted November 13 Report Share Posted November 13 Originally posted by nautilus60 Nauru?!?! You've been there or you just randomly mentioning places? i'm just mentioning places...although Nauru would be on my personal top 50 list...smallest country in the world in the middle of the south pacific...i think a plane lands there once a month and a couple of ships each month to bring supplies in....if you wanted to run a marathon there you would have to run around the island 2 times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauvee88 Posted November 13 Report Share Posted November 13 Made easier by having lived on three continents and having visted 2 others - yep before I die I'll hit all 7!!Ok, perhaps I'll go back and edit and write it out.... maybe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
