Guesses for new set:
56. Yes, I have been there. We were within two hours of the world's tallest building, and the ship had half price excursions and one of them was going to Dubai. There was not a chance in the world I would NOT go up in the world's tallest building. I think it was 132 floors, but the highest they would let the tourists go was 122 floors. They have crafted the top floors so that the top can be taken off and more height easily added just in case anybody in the world tries to go higher. It was quite a view from up there.
57.Palace flag at half mast
58. Belize, have not yet been there.
59. When Bigdog and I went to Paris in 2015, I suddenly started speaking mostly French after a couple days, and was teaching him some phrases. I saw the word maintenant up on a billboard, and I taught Bigdog how to say it, explaining it simply means "now." So later that day, we are trying to eat dinner at a mostly empty cafe, and the waiter is asking us in French when we want the reservation, when we actually wanted to eat right them. And Bigdog pipes up with maintenant, and the waiter understood him and hurried us to a table, LOL. That said, I think there is a French phrase that contains more urgency than just "now." And it is tout de suite. So I will go with tout de suite.
60. Madagascar, have not been there and probably should go before climate change kills all of their unique plants and animals, or as we say in Trivial Pursuit, their Eukarya.

57.What is Buckingham Palace's code if the Queen Elizabeth has died? London Bridge is Down -close enough for a wtg Granny Trivia

59.How do the French say immediately or at once or right now? -tout suite -love the spellings wtg all
60.what African island has its capital as Antananarivo as its capital and I used to book a mining company there? -Madagascar -wtg Granny Trivia and Juju . It was a pain to get people and its own airline , I was told by one exec never to book again it as it took a month for her back to recover.
Thanks for playing . It feels like a cool breeze on this holiday Monday. Not all provinces have it as a holiday .
