This is the beginning of JMT's journey.
1. He left for his trip from the capital of our country. Give me the name of the city, continent that it is located on and the hemisphere.
Remember lines of latitude run horizontal (parallel with the equator). Lines of longitude run vertical (parallel to the Prime Meridian). Remember for latitude the equator is zero and for longitude the Prime Meridian is zero. Latitude lines are like the rungs of a ladder and are either North or South. Longitude lines are long and run up and down, East and West

2. Give me the location where the latitude and longitude lines meet. The coordinates are latitude 25 degrees North and longitude 40 degrees West.
3. Here are the coordinates of where he landed. 52 degrees N and 0 degrees W. Name the country (and the city if you can).
