Here is one about Taiwan.
For garbage collection, the garbage truck drives slowly down the streets and alleys, and the people come out with their own garbage and throw it into the back of the truck. Mostly, they come by every day at about the same time.
(PS The trucks play Fur Elise in the style of an ice cream truck so people know that they are coming. Whenever I hear the opening to that song, I think of garbage trucks in Taiwan. LOL)

Louisiana has no mountains, but we do have a hill that's called a mountain, because perspective is everything.
Driscoll Mountain is in Bienville Parish and is 535 feet above sea level.

Wow, I never knew about the KentIcky Bend until now. That’s interesting, but you said (at least) two. Is there another area as well?
