Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Why did Greg feel his holiday had been turned upside down?

Answer: Because his family had decided to leave the country for a resort island

Greg's Christmas was turned upside down because his family had decided to leave the country and go to a resort island for Christmas rather than spend it at home. This was because his parents were getting stressed out about getting ready for Christmas, and the resort looked to be the best alternative option.
2. What is the name of the luxury resort island Greg and his family went to during the Christmas holiday?

Answer: Isla De Corales

Greg and his family took a trip to Isla De Corales after the late night ad appeared on TV. When Greg asked his mom about their holiday presents, she told him that the trip was his gift.
3. While on the plane right before takeoff, Greg noticed the seats to his left and right were empty. But he spoke too soon. Who filled the seats?

Answer: A couple and their baby

A couple and their baby arrived just as the plane doors were about to close. The father sat just left from Greg and the mother sat at his right, with the baby on her lap.
4. Greg has always had a thing for spiders since he was seven years old. What book did Greg mention would have been a very short book if he were a character in it?

Answer: Charlotte's Web

Greg developed a thing for spiders when he was seven after he poked at a spider's egg sac which was filled with baby spiders. Since then he had always hated everything that involved spiders (including reading). "Charlotte's Web" was one of the few books Greg mentioned.
5. While on what ride did the Heffleys plan to take their holiday picture while they were at the resort?

Answer: Banana Boat

The Heffleys took their holiday picture on the Banana Boat ride, which ended up being disappointing because the ride eventually got broken by kids on trampolines which ruined their family's picture.
6. Greg's mom rented a cruise boat for the family so they could go snorkeling. But Greg accidentally swallowed water, so they had to cut the trip short. Who did they leave behind?

Answer: Rodrick

Rodrick was left behind while the rest headed back to the resort's mainland. He wasn't too happy as he got sun poisoning.
7. What important lesson does Greg say he learned while on the golf course?

Answer: That nothing good ever lasts

The Heffleys found a suitcase belonging to another family which they picked up by mistake. But the suitcase actually contained many kinds of clothes including restaurant clothes. So they borrowed the clothes and went down to the clubhouse to have a meal.

While at the clubhouse, they decided to have some fun on the golf course. But then a security guard came up to them and arrested them for being reported to be wearing another family's clothes. That was when Greg learnt that nothing good ever lasts.
8. The luxury resort the Heffleys were in was divided into two sides. What were they?

Answer: The mild and wild sides

The tropical resort was divided into the wild and mild side. Greg and his family were on the mild side, whereas couples were taken to the wild side.
9. Did the Heffleys sneak back into the resort?

Answer: Yes

The Heffleys did sneak back into the resort as Gregs parents wanted to leave on a high note. So they dodged the check in and arrived back in the resort early the next morning.
10. Why were the Heffleys banned from the resort at the end?

Answer: They had caused commotion between the two sides of the resort.

The Heffleys were banned because they had caused commotion between the mild and wild side while they were trying to outrun the security. It wasn't until Greg was being lifted up the barrier between both sides that members of the mild side ran through the wall and headed to the pool on the wild side. Their pictures were eventually posted on the resort's homepage with a cross across it.
