In which continent is the Sinai penisula?
 Merci
 Mongolia

Hello mongolia,

"Sinai Peninsula - the corridor between the African and Aisan
continent."
SOURCE: http://www.safariegypt.com/hotels/#sinai

"Africa is linked to Asia in the northeast by the Sinai Peninsula and
separated from Europe by the Mediterranean Sea."
SOURCE: http://www.nhm.org/africa/science/intro.htm

"The Sinai peninsula is located between the Nile valley in Africa
and West Asia." 
SOURCE: http://www.millenniumassessment.org/en/assessments/c.sinai.htm

In summary, it appears that the Sinai peninsula is a land bridge
between the continents of Africa and Asia.

For Merci, if you are talking about Merci, Haiti, it would be on the
North American Continent.

Dear tisme

  As I happen to live in a French speaking country , sometimes I accidentally 
  slip back to 'La langue diplomatique' i.e. French. However it is nice to know 
  that Merci is also place in Haiti.
  
  Dear Bowler 
   
  So I assume the answer to my original question is  ASIA ?

  Thanks

Hello mongolia,

The embarrasing thing is that I live in Canada were the second
language is French. I had just woken up -- that is the best excuse I
can offer. :)

Yes, Asia would be the answer.
