San Francisco.



San francisco. Or is this New York or Chicago or Boston? I think it's San Francisco, there's Golden Gate in the background.

Dream Island

Dream Island is an island lying 0.7 km (0.43 mi) south-east of Cape Monaco, off the south-west coast of Anvers Island in Wylie Bay, in the Palmer Archipelago of Antarctica. It was surveyed by the British Naval Hydrographic Survey Unit in 1956-1957 and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for its natural features including a cave and, in summer, a small waterfall, withmossy patches and grass. It lies about 10 km north-west of the United States' Palmer Station.

In Germany, Angela Merkel has given her reaction to the resignation of Pope Benedict, who was born Joseph Ratzinger in Bavaria in 1927. Merkel thanked the pope for his work as head of the Catholic church,Kate Connolly reports from Berlin, and said his decision to resign was to be given "the absolute highest respect".
Benedict, she said, "is and remains one of the most important religious thinkers of our time". She added that if he was too weak to fulfil his duties, that had to be respected. "In an age like ours when people live ever longer, many people will understand that even the pope has to come to terms with the burdens of ageing."
