Disney Trivia December 2020 Exercise Challenge

[sophy1996]

Good morning, and welcome to the very last day of 2020!!

Let's finish out the month by circling back to Walt's original park, Disneyland:

What year did Disneyland open? (Hint: this year was its 65th birthday!)

Spoiler: When?

1955

How long did it take Disneyland to sell a million admission tickets?

Spoiler: ???

Less than two months (September 8, 1955).

Which princess's castle graces Disneyland?

Spoiler: Who?

Sleeping Beauty. Cinderella prefers Florida.

Who is Jingles?

Spoiler: Who?

The carousel horse decorated with a tribute to Mary Poppins.

Who wrote the iconic "It's a Small World" song?

Spoiler: Who?

The Sherman Brothers

What Disneyland attraction included real human bones upon opening?

Spoiler: ???

Pirates of the Caribbean

Which Disneyland attraction was the first to cost more than the entire park had cost to open?

Spoiler: $$$

Space Mountain ($20 million in 1977 compared to Disneyland's $17 million two decades earlier). On the other hand, Galaxy's Edge reportedly cost in the region of $1 billion.

And with that, I'm calling December trivia a wrap! I'll be back to collect all last minutes, so keep 'em coming.

Wishing us all a very happy 2021!

And that does it for me this year. Here's to a happy 2021 for us all!

Thanks for great month, sophy1996. The trivia was both entertaining and enlightening.

P.S. 4 correct on the last set of trivia questions. I didn't think I would get any right when I saw it was about DIsneyland, so I'm very happy with that!

I will take on January, but I'm feeling low energy lately, so I'm just going to keep up with our minutes and not base the month around a theme. Hope that's okay. I'll be back with a link once I have the thread up.

Thank you! And thank you @sophy1996 for hosting and the trivia! I did okay on the last several days that I missed. I was travelling and didn't have any time to exercise.

 

[sophy1996]

I finished with a 25-minute New Year's Eve walk, for a total of 1100/930.

Congratulations to Twilight Sparkle for finishing the year at Green and to the TEAM for finishing at an adjusted 91.7% (accounting for someone who dropped out the first week) and Red!

On to 2021!!
