This year it is in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia, following last years success in County Clare, Ireland, and the 2001 event in Bouillon, Belgium. This year the dates are Saturday, August 9 to Sunday, August 17. There is also registration site and a members mailinglist. I'm driving from England, a 2400 mile round trip!"

    Likewise for Australia. I don't live there, but I heard these stories when I was visiting.

    Tourists (including Americans) came down for the Olympics. Some where known to ask if they could see Uluru (Ayers Rock) during an afternoon when they had a couple hours free. Olypmics were in Sydney. Uluru is a four hour drive from Alice Springs, in the middle of the country. Ha!

    Guess most people are ignorant of geography in regions not their own.
