FT has members from all over the world, and it's nice to learn a bit about all the world's countries.

My global education was dreadfully lacking in the America-centric schools I attended in the sixties. I'm looking foward to the next several months :-)

Yay, Day 1 is India. And the Indian community in Malaysia here is celebrating their Thaipusam today, too. :)

I thoroughly enjoyed the first edition of the bus tour today, looking forward to learning a bit about all 195 if I can do it!

I'm glad you like it. I am actually going to participate fairly regularly in this game because I'd love to learn a little more about the countries of the world.

Anyone who actually plays this game daily for 6 months is going to know an awful lot about the planet. The thing is, this information isn't entirely useless either. I can think of many situations where knowing where places are and who people are can be very helpful.

Thank you for a really interesting new game on my favourite topic. My round-the-world ticket is already booked :)

That was not only fun but I learned a great deal.

I never thought I would become an international "traveler".

I will echo Postcards thoughts, though change the years to 70's and 80's.

I think it was a good quiz but I must have slept through some of the trip (as usual) because I only got half of the answers correct.

This is a really great idea for a new badge and a very good opening quiz. India is a wonderful country to start with.

Thanks Terry, I like this quiz. I thought I knew a bit about the Phillipines until I did the quiz and had to read up. Learning is good!

The wheels on the bus go...........

Like this! Could you place a link for all quizzes. If we miss a day, we can take them anyway? Even without the bonus points, it would be fun to take them all.
