don’t read the other posts

Yes there will be a joker that will double points on any one response.

This is the Thursday game. I will score it up Thursday night at midnight. You have till midnight EST to respond.  
All these questions are about European Travel destinations. You do not need to have traveled to Europe to respond. I’ve tried to craft the questions so that wouldn’t matter.  
There is an eleventh question. I won’t explain it’s meaning until the scores are revealed but it does involve a bonus.  
Let’s put 20 seconds on the clock, time will start when you finish reading the first question.  
1 Name a palace in Europe people visit.

2 Other than the Louvre, name a museum that is ‘big’ with tourists.

3 Name a specific attraction in Italy

4 Name a country where you would take a ski vacation

5 Which nationality, would you most like to have a romantic fling with?

6 Which country would have the best beer?

7 Name a church that you would likely visit.

8 Name an Eastern European city you would like to visit

9 Other than the Mona Lisa, name a work of art housed in the Louvre

10 What is the most romantic city?

secret bonus question

Pick one of these numbers -1, 0, or 1

Remember European Travel  
Lets put 20

Egads, **Zebra** - I swear I didn’t see this thread before I began writing my own Feud. It’s a little freaky that they’re both travel related, if you ask me, but my inspiration was simply that my parents are going on vacation tomorrow. Sorry to stomp on your toes. :o
