Ellzay, Florida.

When I googled Ellzay, Florida, the Destination Name Game came up as No. 1.

Does that mean we are famous?

Yass (Aus)

About 60km north-west of Canberra and 268km south-west of Sydney, white settlers first heard about the gently rolling landscape of the Yass Plains in 1824 after explorers Hume and Hovell passed this way while trying to find an overland route to Port Phillip Bay in Victoria. You can retrace part of their journey along the Hume and Hovell walking track, which starts in the town.
Yass, in fact, was a favourite hangout for bushrangers, including Ben Hall and his henchman Frank Gilbert who met his Maker in 1865 during a gun battle at Binalong, about 36km north-west of Yass.

Scaddan (Australia)

In flat, mallee scrub country about 60km due north of Esperance in the deep south of WA, Scaddan is a little town that appears on few maps or postcode directories.

But, it really does exist... just ask the those hardy souls raising wheat, sheep and cattle and growing barley and other crops around the town.
