Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Got them all in 6:23, with 48 in the first four minutes. I stalled at Mississippi and Oklahoma. But this wasn't really fair. I took a motorcycle trip once where we hit all 48 states, so I simply listed Alaska and Hawaii first, then retraced the trip. |

I learned that I can't spell Massachusetts. Yep, that would have been my number 32 - but didn't know how to write it, too. |

Location: Munich, Germany | Sorry Lanaki, never heard of it. That doesn't mean anything - but me always thinking 'overseas'.
And I think, I could name 10 or 15 capitals of the US States that I knew... :D
Do I know 10 or 15 cities in bavaria? Wow, that would be hard... ;)
