The adventure continues!
With Globetrot Trivia, we visit fifteen destinations all around the world. Sometimes we learn about those locations, but sometimes they inspire something more.
For this challenge, a destination is posted here on this thread. Sometimes that destination will be very specific and sometimes it will be very vague, but either way, we’ll need to have two quizzes queued up before we move on to the next location.
So if we use an example: ‘Central Park, NYC'. This means we need to queue two quizzes— anyone can submit them— before we continue on. The quizzes can be about the park...or parks around the world...or Manhattan...or Central Perk from 'Friends'. As long as you can justifiably link the quiz to the locations, it’s good!
Once we make our trip around the world, we’ll return to our starting location in some way. Last time, we started in Central Park and ended the route in New York City.
All you need to do is post when your quiz is submitted, and when there’s two we’ll move along. The quiz doesn't even need to be online yet! Think of it as a teaser for the players. ;)
Let's see the world again!

I am ready to bet Anna is coming up with 'Animals of Brazil', or 'Animals of the Amazon'. Reply #143. Apr 14 18, 8:58 AM |

Lottie posted her intent to submit that quiz for this, but Anna did not. While I'm sure it's a safe bet, I don't want to set the precedent of assumption. Also, while the Amazon is in Brazil, it's not in Rio. ;) Reply #144. Apr 14 18, 9:56 AM |

Thanks for posting the link to Cape Where? I've just started a template entitled 'Redemption is Recommended'. I hope it will do for Christ the Redeemer. Reply #146. Apr 14 18, 3:52 PM |

Kyle, a clarification, please? This globetrot has only eight destinations? Less than the first one? Reply #153. Apr 16 18, 12:32 AM |

Nope-- fifteen. The new destinations appear as we go along. To unlock the eighth, we need two quizzes submitted for Rio. Reply #154. Apr 16 18, 12:38 AM |

Sometimes it's tough to pick unique sites for the Globetrot tour because you never want to get too specific. A good adventure, however, is often the most unexpected. So with that, we're traveling from Rio de Janeiro and heading westward to the waterfalls on the Brazilian/Argentine border-- Iguaçu Falls (also known as Iguazu Falls). These beautiful falls are closer to Sao Paulo and, actually, a stone's throw from the nation of Paraguay too. This is no Niagara-- these majestic falls, nestled into a rainforest reserve, stretch much further, and the islands found therein provide for unprecedented views. This unique site is worth the stop.
