Favorite thing: Solitaire is small one-man town. This one guy (dunno his name) is the mayor, the resident, the police chief, the shopkeeper, the fireman, etc. In short, he is the only permanent resident in the town of the size of a court yard. He became famous because he's obsessed with Jennifer Lopez. Legend has it when J. Lo was in Africa, she stopped by Solitaire and visited him. When I was there in 2002, the town was expanding. He had workers constructing new buidings in "town".
Fondest memory: Solitaire has a well that produce the sweetest water. If you happen to pass by Solitaire, make sure you fill up your water bottle with the best water I've ever tasted.
