Just a little something to make your trips a little different for kids or ramp it up for adults. Great when you have more than one vehicle travelliing. A bit like a car rally. The points add up at the end of the trip. Winner gets a prize of sorts. The idea is that you have one sheet a day and fill in as many questions as possible by asking others if you can, stopping at libraries, internet. etc. You still have a chance to answer the previous days questions because the adding up comes at the end of the trip. Great conversation makers. I like to make it challenging as
well.
