Well I know it's Ivory Coast as that's a common quiz question asking what it's now called. And it's something like Yammo. So I'll go with Yammo which isn't correct, but I know it's something like that.

And a really nice spot it is too.
A few others I've been in during the last couple of months for you are Avatiu, Apia and Nuku'alofa; depending on the weather we might soon visit either Port Vila or Noumea.
