Next up we have favorite wedding location since 1198 AD.
Hint... that rules out the church being in the USA

Here is another hint...
You will have to figure out the hint, but it will get you very close to the location once you do.
The inside of the church.  As you can see it is very small inside.  Looks big sitting on the hill, but it is not.

Beerman.... May want to post another pic.
The name of this one is Zion...
I am guessing you are in Zion Natl Park....
That does not count 
And you are correct!  Italy - Not Iceland - Food and Wine Better

You are correct Ellen!  From Zermatt it does have a bit more crook, but way up where we were hiking it took that angle away!

OK, no label on this one, but I think it will be guessed pretty quickly.

After the "germ" goes away, Carol you are going to NEED to do some world travelling.   
Well it looks like TravelHat is up - where to now?

Tom--Yeah, I have had several medical issues in recent years, making travel where there is a lot of walking, pretty difficult.   I would love to go to Europe when all this crap is over, but I kind of doubt it will happen.

Carol, have you been to Europe?  You have enjoyed cruises before...they have some tempting ones even for this guy who has never been on one!  It would have to be a relatively small one though!!!!
