Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. I start off in the south of Germany and I'm really thirsty from my flight. Thankfully, I've come across a festival where there's beer to be found everywhere. Someone tells me its been going for two weeks already! It's about to end, but I can always visit Englischer Garten which is larger than Central Park. Which city is this?
2. Now I'm in Italy; the Sistine Chapel is behind me, and to the left is what I originally think is a stadium in the distance, but turns out to be the Colosseum. Where would I be?
3. I am in Spain now, admiring the Sierra Martés mountain range. I was told this town was quiet, but it's currently bustling with people and tomatoes keep flying past my head. Where am I?
4. I now find myself in Athens, Greece. I am here to visit a temple completed in 432 BC. By which name is it known?
5. Now I am in England, sitting in the shade on the top of a large hill near the city of Gloucester. I would have sat at the bottom, but that would have put me at considerable risk. A large group has gathered and are rolling large wheels of cheese down to the bottom, and people are throwing themselves after them. Where do I find myself?
6. I then travel to the largest lake in central Europe, Lake Balaton, and enjoy the swimming experience it yields during summer. I also look out upon the site where there was to be a motorcycle racing circuit built but that never came to be. Which country do I find myself in, with a flag containing three horizontal bands in Christmas colours?
7. I travel north-east to visit my next country. Which country is this, with a flag containing the same colours as Sweden, and the hryvnia as its currency?
8. I then travel across the border to the west and travel into Poland's capital city - or at least I thought I had. This city had been Poland's capital until late in the 16th century, making me only 400 or so years late. Which large Polish city am I in, home to Jagiellonian University (one of the world's oldest higher learning institutions) and which sounds like a sudden, loud noise?
9. I now make my way to the north-west coastline and reach the Netherlands, and finally the North Sea. Looking out into the sea, I inspect the politically neutral project that has been undertaken to guard against rising sea levels and is considered to be one of the wonders of the modern world. It is known by what Greek name?
10. For my final adventure, I find myself in north-west France. I traveled here in an hour by train from Paris and have visited the birthplace of King Henry II of England. I'm now trying to get to Musée de Tessé, the art museum, but I keep encountering roads that are blocked off, and yet I can hear very powerful engines driving behind the blockades. I'm told these will continue for a whole day.
Which city am I in?
