Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Where will you find Tabletop Mountain?

Answer: Toowoomba

My wonderful town, located on the Darling Downs (Queensland's main farming district), is the home of Tabletop Mountain. Tabletop is a flat topped mountain (as you might have guessed), perfectly viewed from Picnic Point, Toowoomba's official lookout and make out spot! : )

2. Where will you find the Big Pineapple?

Answer: Sunshine Coast

The Sunshine Coast is the pineapple growing district of Queensland. Here you will find a HUGE pineapple, that you can walk up and into. A must if you are going to be in the area.

3. What feature is Bli Bli known for?

Answer: Castle

Bli Bli Castle! I went here for the first time a few months ago. I was really amazed, although the dinosaurs next to the moat confused me! I thought dragons would be more appropriate. You can walk around this small castle, into the lookouts, into the dungeon with its torture devices and medieval weaponry, which you can purchase.

It also has thousands of dolls from all over the world. The dolls didn't do anything for me, but the swords, bows, daggers and armor captivated me.

4. Which town does Great Keppel Island ferry leave from?

Answer: Yeppoon

Great Keppel lies about half an hour, by ferry, off the mainland. There is a huge resort, and hundreds of things to do, from scuba-diving, to hiking, to basking in the sun, to para-gliding, to just plain relaxing!

Yeppoon is a city about half an hour from Rockhampton. Rockhampton is where the "Coast meets the Country", and the self-proclaimed "Beef Capital" of Australia.

5. Where will you find the Science Centre, South Bank, the Goodwill Bridge, Planetarium and Botanical Gardens?

Answer: Brisbane

The Goodwill Bridge running over the Brisbane River, was named after Ted Turner's Goodwill Games that was held here. If you go to Brisbane, whatever you do, you must go to the Science Centre (interactive and cool!) and the Planetarium (you all know what that is). They are great!

6. Oh look, Movie World! Dream World! Sea World! Surfers Paradise! Ripley's Believe it or Not! Where am I?

Answer: Gold Coast

This is the second capital of Queensland. All the cool theme parks are here, as well as the best surf you can find!

7. What animals have made their home on the sandy Fraser Island?

Answer: Dingos

Unfortunately, no one is allowed to touch or feed these beautiful dogs. Worse still, they are being culled by the government in huge numbers.

8. Which of these is not a Brisbane sporting team?

Answer: Leopards

The Brisbane Bullets- basketball. The Brisbane Broncos- Rugby League. The Brisbane Lions- AFL.

9. What precious metal is Gympie known for?

Answer: Gold

I lived there for a few months when I was a little girl. I found specks of gold in my backyard when I was making mudpies. I thought I was rich! That is how common it was.

10. What is the official Queensland bay hotspot for whales?

Answer: Hervey Bay

Every year thousands of people come to see the humpback whales frolic and play in the crystal waters of Hervey Bay (that rhymed). Some people go every year, as it is a truly amazing sight.
