I can't think of any new question either.
      I'm trying to find a good question to narrow it down, but there are several island countries ending with a vowel and just two questions left to find this not-a-building/bridge/square-maybe there will be a fountain thing and I don't want to guess random countries, but with only one question and guess left at least it will narrow down the options for the guess..
Is it in Indonesia?
  
  
  Is it in Indonesia?
 No it is not in Indonesia Rosa but you are much closer! It's smaller than Indonesia and all of it is above the Equator. And when I type in Island country in Asia on google - it comes up first though that could be because I have been looking at it a lot for our next capital challenge.

      I made a mistake!
I think it's the Merlion in Singapore. I forgot the country ends with an 'e' in English

 you made a mistake? Do you think you have it? Go, Rosa,Go!
      you made a mistake? Do you think you have it? Go, Rosa,Go!I'm down to two island countries that END IN A VOWEL but I screwed up so badly with my wasted questions MEA CULPA
 Rosa, that was one of the islands I thought it might have been too. But the equator confused me there and I did not see anything it might be. I think I finally have the right island which I did not have until Jan's last clue but I still have no idea what to guess. I'm 0-2 for question 20 so I will leave that up to you or someone else to guess.

      Ah I didn't check the equator thing! Sorry! Now I'm really excited what it's going to be!
    
  
  
   Sorry I was really busy at work and couldn't jump on until now.

Sorry this was so hard guys! I was afraid the closeness to the equator might cause an issue but Singapore is right above it and is in the northern hemisphere. We will be visiting Singapore in June for our capital challenge.
Rosa - if you want to pick a new place feel free!!
      The hard ones are the best to play, great location Jan!
And thank you, but no. I'm almost home from a weekend in Cracow and it was very nice but I'm very tired and all I want to do now is take a shower and crawl in my bed!
