Longitude and Latitude

Hello everyone! As we work on our map skills, I have a sort of find-and-seek game for you...A latitude/longitude find-and-seek!

---You are to pick a location on earth. This could be a city, body of water, mountain, etc.
---After you have chosen your location, provide the latitude and longitude, and nothing else.
---From there, you are to post your location and your classmate will respond to your coordinates with what he/she believes is the location.
---After your post, respond to one classmate's coordinates with what you believe is the location.


REMEMBER: The units of measurement for geographic coordinates in latitude and longitude
are degrees (°), minutes ('), and seconds (").

---BELOW IS MY EXAMPLE

Latitude 41° 36' 56"
Longitude -87° 31' 46"

I AM NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU THIS LOCATION...YET! COMMENT WITH YOUR ANSWER!!!

GOOD LUCK!
