Guesses for new set:
21. Well, our trip up the Amazon River got cancelled by the pandemic, which was a damn shame, but at least we got to do the Antarctica leg. But I suspect the answer is going to be ZERO or why would they ask, but also because it is still mostly tropical jungle with indigenous human tribes who have never interacted with the outside world, unbelievably enough.
22. Dunno - I probably should just break down and memorize all of the Henry VIII wives stuff, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
23. head
24. sleepwalker
25. sharks
26. Budapest, have been there, to both Buda and Pest
27. 4, no idea and Bigdog asleep
28. Well, I think there are three pretty tiny ones up there on the NE corner of the continent, one of which was the Jim Jones cult location, not that one, but I think it is going to be Suriname
29. Club soda/sparkling water
30. Yes, have been to Paris twice but missed going to the Louvre both times; went to the D'Orsay instead, once.
