This is the first word of your trip as you begin your journey.
2. Find a two letter word in the above answer meaning *TO EXIST* - Discard it - Add an *R* to what you have left - anagram what you now have for a word meaning *SMIRKING*

Answer: Grinning

You needed to find a two letter word meaning *TO EXIST* from your answer above and discard those two letters. Then you needed to add the letter R to what you had left. Those eight letters than had to be re-arranged to make the eight letter answer to the above question.
3. Remove one of the triple letters and discard it - Add a *D* to what is left - Anagram what you now have for a word meaning *CRUSHING INTO SMALL PIECES*

Answer: Grinding

There were three letters the same in your answer to question two if you had it correct.

From the eight letter word answer to question three, you needed to remove that first letter and toss it out. Then you had to also remove the participle from the answer to question three and discard it as well. That would have left you with four letters. To those four letters you had to add the letter K. Those five letters had to be then re-arranged to give you the answer for question four.
