Geography word game

First topic message reminder :

Name a geographical landmark that starts with the last letter of the place listed before it. (Can be anywhere in the world.)

So - Whitby Abbey could be followed by York Minster.

'R' landmark anyone?

Let's see, should I go with the "t", the "A" (("MA"), or the "s" ("Massachusetts")? I'm choosing "t."

Terlingua TX (go with the "a" or the "s" at the end of "Texas").

Non-Americans might be sensible to cirumvent the minefield of their zip-codes.

Does anybody want to go with X again, or shall sanity follow Terlingua ignoring the requirements of the US Postal Service?

Good choice. Avoid "x" like the plague.

Escondido CA ("o" or "a")

Escondido is the Spanish word for "hidden" which chimes well with the presumed motives of some game-players, so why not let's keep the pot simmering with Orlando.
