Olive Oil Belt Quiz Part I.


My first port of call during my recent business trip was literally a town with a busy harbour.


I immediately fell in love with its beautiful, stylish, open streets given over to pedestrians full of interesting architectural features.




Numerous ancient churches……….



I even slipped into one to pray for forgiveness for all the inadvertent wickedness on the Blog (that’s you Jenny).


It even had lots of comical policemen with Napoleonic delusions…….


…despite this the policeman’s job is not an easy one, as nearby there are numerous dusty, ancient, little hill-top villages that are a throw back to another age, where violent feuds are a way of life. While such customs may be their thing, they have also had unfortunately a custom of exporting their ways to the New Word and elsewhere.

There should be enough clues (click on the photos) to allow you to pin point the country and the region that the photos relate to. Neha where are you?
