Hmm...Wait, I've already forgotten who Laura is. Hmm.<br /><br />Also...so when my kiddos are fighting and hitting each other and screaming and making me crazy I should remind myself I could be living in the 1340s. I'll try that.<br /><br />1. In what's now the United States. Specifically in the general St. Louis area, along the lower Ohio River, etc. iirc Moundville is in southernmost Illinois. I drove through it once (or was that Mounds? I always confuse Mounds and Moundville). It was pretty bleak.<br />2. Very long, eh? Sounds like the Hundred Year War.<br />3. Was it attempts to convert to Christianity?<br />4. India.<br />5. That Black Death thing, I presume.<br />6. "deadly gavocciolo" will be my new insult. "Oh yea, well ur *face* is a deadly gavocciolo!" Anyway, this must be more Black Death.<br />7. Um...they were being blamed for the Black Death?<br />8. I doubt I could have guessed without those alumni names, which are awfully Czech, which reminds me isn't that famous bridge in Prague called the "Charles Bridge" or something? So yea, Prague?<br />9. Flagellants in a Bull is an awesome band. Isn't "flagellants" like people who hurt themselves on purpose for religious reasons?<br />10. Looks like the Colleseum in Rome, or however you spell it. I've been there too. It was a bit nicer than Moundville.pflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866574024138674337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10779294.post-69529155690155912502016-07-06T15:39:27.111-07:002016-07-06T15:39:27.111-07:001 - US Midwest -- near the Mississippi
