Dreamy Geography

Welcome to another edition of Anne's Dreams, Chapter 27. In last night's episode, I was participating in a mission trip team meeting. I believe that the team's destination was Serbia...only this wasn't the Serbia that we all know and love, located in Central East Europe next to Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria (to name a few border countries; and yes, I had to Google a map of Serbia just now because I couldn't recall its border countries beyond Hungary). When the team leader and I consulted the map to locate Serbia for the team's benefit, we found that Serbia was, in fact, an island located next to Guam...off the southern tip of South America. What? Serbia is an island? What?? Serbia is next to the Pacific Island of Guam?? What??? Serbia and Guam are located off the southern tip of South America??? My geography skills never were that impressive, but even I know that's wrong!
