| I think it's a marine servicing station on Highway 1 along the Florida Keys. Can't find a name for it, though. |

Correct times two! Congrats, steinhenge!
Having grown tired of being easily beaten up by you folks, I didn't give much to go on for this exercise. Great work!
Wiki has an article on Breezandijk, as well as one on the remarkable battle won by the Dutch against the Nazis on that dyke in 1940.
The standings:- Hal, 16 points
- Hawks, 5.5 points
- lorddix, 4 points
- steinhenge, 4 points
- Randy, 3 points
- bngbuck, 2 points
- Simon, 2 points
- Dave W., 1 point
(Ties are listed in alphabetical order.)
