Some young travelers have sent postcards home to family in the United States, but the senders forgot to say which country they were visiting. Can you use the geography clues to determine which country each postcard was sent from?
The names of the four countries where these postcards came from are hidden in the letters that form the border at left and right. To find out the names, circle every third letter—starting with the starred one in each row of letters.
Standards
Look through the newspaper for names of 10 different cities. Arrange these words in alphabetical order.
Follow the maze to find out how to say hello in each country.
