Hello,

I created a Google Earth Alphabet using only locations in The Netherlands, including capitals, lower case and numbers and punctuation.

It took me about a week to find all the characters.
KMZ-file is attached. I hope you like it.

Thomas

Well done. Thanks! If you were to remove the clues and post it in Fun and Games, they would love it as a challenge. Ask a moderator if you want to do this and need help.

I thought no-one could be bothered finding all the locations. So I just added the map and the KMZ-file.
And the KMZ-file has already been downloaded a few times. Would people here still find it a challenge if I would remove the KMZ-file and the map?

They like to answer challenges similar to what you have posted. It would probably be best to break it down into three sections though.

Kun je beter niet doen, Thomas. 26 letters die gezocht moeten worden is te veel van het goede. Wel goed gedaan trouwens!

Groeten, R.
