I want to say it was discussed at some point. I can look at some site options over the weekend, unless others already know of a site that would be good :)

Feel free to create your own personal map. You can always add it in to your personal plans :)"

Are they new locati..."


Yes, these are new locations, including those read in both 2019 and 2020.

You can definitely use the same website for your own map. Just start a new map in the same site.

That is a lot of locations for one book. I don't mind including 2 when necessary but that one is a lot. Can you narrow down a focus?

Laura | 3780 comments Mod
The map has been updated through message 208.

New locations this time:
- Cape Verde
- Monaco
- Vatican City
- Armenia
- Serbia

That means Hélène, Bunny, Ron, Viktoria, and Sarah have earned badges.

Laura, I don't see my two locations from Message #178 on the map:

Davis Strait, near Greenland
Mexico

Thanks for adding them.

Sorry, Stacey, the way it was written, I was thinking it was all one location. In hindsight, that made no sense considering Mexico is nowhere near Greenland 🤦‍♀️

I can add Mexico in the next round of updates. Davis Straight is really specific for the map and we aren't really able to map water.

No problem! If you can add it to both locations, please add it to Mexico and Greenland. Thanks!
