Land Ho! We just sailed into Ensenada after almost 6 days at sea. We only saw a couple of ships along the way and a few dolphins. Other than that it was all water, all day, every day. |

Wait 24 hours before doing a search.

Reggie is correct.
It's your turn to ask the next question, Salty. |

A surprisingly large percentage of Japan's top division sumo wrestlers come from foreign countries. But wrestlers from one country in particular have dominated the sport for the past 15 years. What country? |

Good guess, but incorrect. There have been a number of sumo wrestlers from Hawaii, many of whom are Samoan. Currently only two Americans are active in sumo, a Samoan-Hawaiian and a Japanese-Texan, neither of whom has yet reached the top division.
Currently 11 of the 42 top-division sumo wrestlers are from the country in question, which is on the mainland of Asia. |

It looks like nobody else wants to guess. Go ahead and Google. |
