It is situated south of the county of Hampshire and is separated from mainland Britain by the Solent. Popular as "THE" Victorian holiday resort, the Isle of Wight is known for its natural beauty and for its world-famous sailing based in Cowes. <br> It was home to the poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, and Queen Victoria with her much loved summer residence and final home [[Osborne House]] built in East Cowes. The island is also one of the richest fossil locations for dinosaurs in Europe. <br> In 686 AD, it became the last part of the British Isles to convert to Christianity, a century after the rest of Great Britain had done so. <br> The island is the smallest ceremonial county in England at 380 kmΒ² (147 sq mi), although at low tide it is actually larger than Rutland. With a single Member of Parliament and roughly 32,000 permanent residents, it is also the most populated Parliamentary constituency in the United Kingdom. It was once part of Hampshire. <br> On August 27, 1888 a massive 200 meter cylinder "appeared" along the coast of the Isle.

Opposite the stone ship patterns of the hole stood a single [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menhir Standing stone]. :* '''[[The London Trumpet]]''' [[Image:Trumpet-Building-and-Map.gif|thumb|Map of London, noting the location of the London Trumpet's office building.]] ::: ??? ====Neighborhoods & Boroughs of London==== ====Suburbs & the Country outside London==== ====Government, Corporate & Financial of London==== ===The World Beyond=== [[Image:66278193.jpg|thumb|The streets of Tombstone, AZ]] :* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tombstone%2C_Arizona Tombstone, AZ]''' ::: Tombstone is a city in Cochise County, Arizona, USA, founded in 1879 in what is then the Arizona Territory.
