    No Olo?

    I thought it was on Timor. But, now that I actually pull out the atlas and take a look, I can't find it either. Oops. Curiously, I did find a weather report online, though that may not suffice as valid corroboration. I guess I'll have to forfeit a turn, and promise to check my sources more thoroughly. My apologies.

    Ah ha!!

    Found it. It is a town in Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Further reference is Olo, Indonesia - Geographical Names, map, geographic coordinates . You have been vindicated.

    Interestingly, if you click on a link to Google map, it shows the place as being in Timor, but the geographic position has it in Nusa Tenggara. There is also a mountain nearly called Olo Boto, and the link to Google map for the mountain goes to the correct island.

    So, on with the game..

    Thank you. That's a relief. I was worried you'd think I was making all these places up. My kids sometimes think that, when we're playing in the car and the names sound too weird.
