Where did you visit for its geographical significance?

The grassy knoll.

Yes we have been there too.

When is critical. Certain organisations would be very interested if it was on 22 Nov 1962, especially if you're a smoker.

Azores - 6 out of the 9 islands, all different
Nordkapp - North Cape lat. 71N
Been past, or to, a number of other major capes/points - Leeuwin, Passero, Finnisterre, Lands End, Fastnet Rock, Cape Sable, Maatsuyker (where they make the wind wch they send to the rest of the world..) and a few others. Oh, and Guantanamo back in the last 70's on a yacht that happened to have a marine major who knew someone there.. Officers mess was a pretty swanky place for a young colt.. Its quite a large port and airbase, with local Cuban staff coming in daily to work in laundry, mess, cleaning etc.

Now post the Toblerone one!

Interestingly due to “Geographical indications” Tobelerone is no longer allowed to be promoted with images of the Matterhorn.
Because it is no longer a Swiss product (US owner and manufactured outside Switzerland ) it falls foul of the new regulations. (in a similar manner to Champagne v sparkling wine.)

Toblerone: Swiss rules mean chocolate bar to drop Matterhorn from packaging

Production of some of the chocolate is moving outside Switzerland so the Alpine peak can no longer be used.

Interesting. I just looked for the photo and found that story from 2023.
I also recall holding up a Canadian $20 note in a photo at Moraine Lake in the Rocky Mountains years ago. I think the money has changed since then. (note not my photo)
