Setting Alphabet Reading Challenge hosted by
Nothing But Reading Challenges.
Goal: Travel the world alphabetically! From A - Z use
different settings and locals to read the alphabet. You may use the
names of cities, counties, states, Providences, countries, lakes,
oceans, mountain range, islands, national parks, etc.
For hard to find letters, like "X" and "Z", you may use settings with with the letter within the name.
Yes, you may use fictional settings.
Duration: You set the pace.
Start date is today the 18th of August 2013. I will keep going till I have finished.
Well that "only" took me just over two years to finish. I have had trouble with X and Z as could be expected but got there in the end.
