If that does not complete the list maybe Sea of Galilee? They did call it a sea back then.

Yes to the Adriatic. Two more to go. One isn't called a sea in modern times.

Yes to all three.


There are still fourteen points available:

Three more wonders of the world
Two more seas
Two more Brothers
All SEVEN Brides!

A couple more wonders:

Temple of Artemis (Diana) - but I can't remember where.
Mausoleum at Halicarnassus I think.

ETA: I think the temple was at Ephesus.

Excuse me please, but one of the brothers named (7 Brides for 7 Brothers) was incorrect.
"Frank" was just a nickname for his Bible name...

I've seen this movie 13 times... so far.

Yes, the Persian Gulf is one. That last one is part of the Indian Ocean.

True, but the full name was given in the answer, I just used the nickname in the summary.

Current Scores:

Hamlet53: 11 points
orlok: 9 points
HomeInMyShoes: 8 points
Bilbo1967: 6 points
red_phoenix: 6 poiints
Shayne Parkinson: 4 points
poohbear_nc: 3 points
Bookpossum: 2 points

Still 7 points available!

There's still a chance for some people to overtake Hamlet53!

One brother, four brides and one sea to go!

Six points available, and only five points separate the top five!
