May is Just Flying By

May is flying by....for Jim that is. Since the first part of May, Jim has been to Beijing, New Delhi, Istanbul, Cairo and Boston. That's a lot of air time. Come home, Daddy.

Here's another chance at a prize: name the historic site in each picture to win.

I would be so jealous. Except the flying part. Yuck. Very cool to see so much of the world, though.

I'm figuring these out. Having trouble with the first Boston one. I will post my answers soon.

What fun adventures y'all are having.

OK, is the fact that I have an answer for each of these evidence I've spent too much time searching wikipedia today?

How fun you've seen all these places that I only get to read about.

1) Tianamen Square, China
2) India Gate, New Dehli
3) Sultan Ahmed Mosque, Istanbul, Turkey (If you search this one on wikipedia, they have a photo almost identical to yours--crazy).
4) Hagia Sofia, Istanbul, Turkey
5) Great Pyramids, Giza (Cairo)
6) Old State House, Boston
7) 1st Public School, aka Boston Latin School
8) Boston Skyline viewed from Boston Harbor

Hope I win!
