To the North a dusty foot philosopher was born

To the South as you go, the colder the weather

To the West is a brown leaf - wait is that a horn?

To the East is a place to get back together


I'm with a group of fellow ghosts hanging out at the park. Where and what am I?

            The brown leaf is probably a chameleon from the east side of Madagascar. See this Wikipedia article for details. Since the brown leaf is west, that would put us on the east coast. Probably the city of Mohanoro or Mananjary?

            r13(Enabznsnan Angvbany Cnex) then? I mean, r13(Zbmnzovdhr) is pretty big. You could draw a line from it to the eastern island through just about any of the national parks. But, I'm probably just being dumb.
