  3. OK.  This location shares its name with a famous prison and a one-hit wonder.

  4. I knew it!  It’s the Abu Ghraib Resort and Spa in Outer Mongolia!  It reminds me of Dave Abu Ghrab, who is famous for his song, “Knock Me Over With a Feather, You’re Knocked Up,” a duet with Barbara Mandrell in 1983.
