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!

okay, my bad. Warrior100 sent me a nice note about my New Zealand volcanoes quiz for this challenge, and he had just finished his own quiz on Auckland, so I posted it here and turned him on to the Lounge! Which he had never been to before. He is an active Geo author. I hope we see him around in the future. So it was a good outcome. But you are correct the quiz was not at all done for this challenge. Living and learning.... Reply #261. May 31 18, 8:10 AM |

Going to try to knock out my Molokini-inspired submission today and get my trip on the way to complete in time for my vacation (and the next GT tour in July!). Reply #265. Jun 06 18, 7:48 PM |

I queued something manageable for my current time crunch for Auckland, inspired by the City of Sails. Two more for me. Reply #267. Jun 13 18, 3:28 PM |

I have finally broken the back of the new timetable my school needs to have in operation next week, although there is still a lot of work needed to get them all into classrooms. I hope that my ideas for New Zealand x 2 and Sydney will actually take form in the near future. Maybe not this week, but soon. They are growing clear in my mind due to all the thinking time while I didn't have writing time. Reply #269. Jun 17 18, 1:47 PM |

There are a couple more quizzes to come down the pipeline for this and quizzes will no longer be able to be added to this tour after the 15th of August. If you want to get added to the list, that's the date you have to be queued by. Who knows when we'll visit these destinations again!? Reply #277. Jul 25 18, 4:50 AM |
