Game - the Geography Game

[karinedauphin]

so funny, really... We will write a "RDA-mix- exchanges geaography game"... with all that we found

So, I stay in mountain with

ABONDANCE

it means of course, Abundance. It is a little town in Haute Savoie with 1,400 people.
But it is also the name for cows : "Abondance" cattle breed has a good reputation.

Santa Claus, Indiana
In 1854, a group of pioneers settled in southwest Indiana and established a small town called Santa Fe. But when they applied to get a post office two years later, they were turned down. There was already another Santa Fe, Indiana, with a post office. The new Santa Fe would need a new, distinct name to get one of their own.

Beata, very nice and interesting.
But the rule of this game is, at least, to take the last letter of the latter proposal.
Could you try to keep this one time ? For example, this time I wrote ABONDANCE... So the next item would begin with an E.
However, of course, Santa Claus was very pleasant to be read...But It is just to follow the game.

Of course, if someone will play after me, it would be probably another letter... So is funny...
Thanks Beata

Yes, Beata, so glad you are playing the geography game! And a town named Santa Claus is very interesting and funny. Thanks for that information.

But, as Karine has said, could you do a geography place name that starts with an "E" since "ABONDANCE" ends with an "e"?

THANK YOU!
