Wikipedia Trail: Civil War to Fireworks
For this Wikipedia trail, I started off with Captain America: Civil War from the class announcement page. I love Marvel movies, and I haven't gotten a chance to see this one. I wish I had been able to go to the free showings at the union this past weekend! This then took me to the Olympiastadion in Berlin. This is where many Olympic events were held when Berlin hosted the summer Olympics in 1936. I really enjoyed getting to watch the Olympics this summer, so I thought that was a cool that Captain America led me to them. I then got to the Queen's Official Birthday. This is the day that governments celebrate as the official day for the Queen's, or King's, birthday. In the UK, the Queen's birthday is celebrated on the second Saturday in June. The Queen's Official Birthday then took me to fireworks. Fireworks are so beautiful, and I'm a little bit of a pyromaniac, so they are really fun to me. I love any excuse to shoot some fireworks into the sky!

I haven't actually done a Wikipedia trail yet so I don't know if it is based off of the wikipedia game but your is the first wiki post I have read. If it isn't based off the game then you and some friends should play it some day! You decide on an exact page to end on and then everyone hits random page and you have to keep going through links until you get to the page that you all decided on! It is a lot of fun. Your string of different wiki pages made me think of it.
ReplyDeleteI just did a Wikipedia trail last week and it was pretty cool to see where you end up after searching through all of the pages! I never knew that the queen's birthday is officially celebrated on the second Saturday of June, but I do now! I love the Marvel movies as well and just recently saw Doctor Strange, which I would highly recommend!
