On today's cruise activities there was a Greek mythology quiz. Knowing I used to be into Greek mythology I was convinced to join team westysclan to try to claim victory.
At 4:30 we went to the clippers bar and nobody was there so we sat down and had a drink pretending to have gone there for that reason and not look like idiots. When the lady running the quiz started asking who was doing the quiz we piped up and luckily we weren't the only ones. The quiz ended up having three teams each of a different nationality, Aussies, French and Spanish. But the other teams there had no idea of our teams secret weapon....... Me. We started and the first question would almost have lost us the game if Jake had not spoken up and said the correct answer. Dad was also impressed with how much Greek Mythology he had learnt during our guided tour of Athens.
We ended up winning with a score of 10/10 but the runners up got 9/10. As a prize I got a travel hairbrush and mirror. We have decided to give the quiz to you and run a competition, whoever gets back to us first with all the right answers wins a prize. So here are the questions.
1 How many gods of Olympus are there?
2 Who was the god of the sea?
3 Who was the goddess of Love?
4 Who was the Parthenon dedicated to?
5 Who was the god of wine?
6 Who was the mother of Eros?
7 Who was the king of gods?
8 Who had the face that launched 1000 ships?
9 Who was the messenger of the gods?
10 Where did the gods live?
First to email all the correct answers wins!! (you know the one - westysclan at bigpond dot com - deliberately done with words to stop spam, you just substitute with the @ and .)
This is the goddess Nike (yes, like the shoe brand), the God of Victory. The Nike shoe brand swish comes from the swish in her dress tails.
