Congratulations to 14-year-old Caitlin Snaring from Redmond, Washington, only the second girl to win the annual geography bee. She didn’t miss a single question in two days of competition, and she captured the title in Washington D.C. by answering the question, “What city, divided by a river of the same name, was the imperial capital of Vietnam?” Correct response: Hue. Congratulations also to Samuel Brandt, who won the AAA Travel High School Challenge Monday. The 10th grader from Eugene, Oregon clinched on the question, “Dubrovnik is a popular tourist destination in which country?” Answer: Croatia.
