Nope! Got 5/10 right. Eek.
 
Well, they messed up on the quiz anyway! Hah!
According to them, the Amazon is the longest river in the world - it's not, it is the Nile! So I should have gotten ten out of ten, LOL!
 
I thought it was the Amazon. Do they disregard the Nile because there is an Upper and Lower Nile?
 
Now that I read your comment Birgit, I feel better: 80% for me...but thank goodness Ashley is in 8th grade next year, so I can brush up!! That was fun....
 
How do you find out which questions you got wrong? My results only indicated how many I got right. Dave was wondering too.....
