No Miss Letty, Baja belongs to Mexico, and central America it isn't either.
Walter, yes one of the US Territories.
I can never get the Baja straight, Jane.
It probably is, as it seems to be the Marina Puerto Base in Puerto Rico..
Yes it is, Francis.
Miss LEtty, I wish Baja would belong to the United States.
That's one beautiful piece of land, all the way down to Cabo San Lucas.
Are we surprised that Francis got it.
Here is what confuses me, Jane:
Baja California (literally "lower California" in Spanish) is the northernmost state of Mexico. It is sometimes incorrectly referred to as Baja California Norte to distinguish it from the Baja California peninsula, of which it forms the northern half, and Baja California Sur, which forms the southern half of the peninsula. Before becoming a state in 1953, the area was known as the Territory of Baja California Norte. It has an area of 71,576 km2 (about 27,600 mi2, or 3.57% of the land mass of Mexico. The state is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by Sonora and the Sea of Cortez or Gulf of California, and on the south by Baja California Sur. Its northern limit is the U.S.-Mexico border, adjacent to the U.S. state of California.
What's confusing, Miss LEtty, you got it all in there
Baja California is
connected to the US only by border and name.
Jane, I never forget the words to a song, honey, but geography? It keeps coming back to haunt me. I learn, however, by making mistakes. Binet would appreciate that.
YooHoo, Francis, it's your turn
Greek Orthodox Church outside Greece?
Not an orthodox church but outside Greece (not Europe), Dutchy.
Hmmm. Somehow that little church looks Mexican. Mexico, Francis
But it isn't, Miss Letty. Not the Americas.
