Guesses for new set:
4. Argentina, have been to Ushuaia in 2020, just before Covid, on our way to Antarctica
5. once a day
7. badminton
9. That is an oddly phrased question because the Fall months would be the same as the northern hemisphere Spring, which begins in March and ends in June, so I guess if you want to go with which months have the MOST days in Fall in the Southern hemisphere, it would be April, May, June
