Five and Dime with a Jungle Beat

Muse Euterpe and Terpsichore greeted ~Journay~ who was waiting for that at the Muse Pond locale. They were joined soon after by Dusty, Lil'DD and Journey. Muse Terpsichore shared some oranges she had brought back from her recent travels, while inspiring some Chinese New year celebrations. ~Journay~ thought the dragons in the parades were so beautiful. She shared that she had painted two of them on canvas for a friend from China. Terpsichore noted that their was a special Tea Leaf Quest in honor of the Chinese New Year.

Muse Terpsichore noted that while she was away the citizens of Kymer had enjoyed two festivals of their own, The Winter Wonderfest and the Native's Winter Festival. She had spent some time exploring the jungle attractions upon her return and planned a Jungle themed game of Five and Dime. The first question went to Dusty, who was to name: Five fruits from jungle drop hunt. Muse Terpsichore thought this would be an easy one to start off with as there were only five fruits dropped. Unfortunately, her guests had seen very few of them and had a bit of difficulty naming them. The group together managed to come up with bananas, coconuts and plums. Three out of five wasn't too bad. Other questions such as Naming Five jungle animals or Five games played in the jungle were a bit easier. ~~Journey~~ had a little difficulty naming Five jungle flowers, but with some help she came up with Roses, Daisy(we weren't sure if they could be found in the jungle, but gave her the benefit of the doubt),morning glory, bromeliad. Can you name five jungle flowers? how about Five Jungle Orchids? (see the end of the article for the list supplied by the Muses) The players found it easier to list Five statues and Five Jungle Huts and Five Jungle locales with water. Trees turned out to be a bit of stumper at first, but ~Journay~ came up with Palm, Mahogany, Diffy, Bamboo, and Willow with some help from Lil'DD. Of course they had no trouble naming Five prizes you could trade for, or Five wearables from the event or Five Jungle deco items.

The Muses and their guests had grand time revisiting the jungle with their memories, but soon the game came to an end. This week they shared Muse Thalia's Quarters with their guests and invited them to join them again next Wednesday at the Muse Pond for more Potpourri games.

P. S. Muse Terpsichore lists these as the Flowers she recorded in her notebook upon her most recent walk through the jungle:

Morning Glory (of which there were 18 different colors, 8 of which could be planted in your own garden), Jungle Fuchsia, Bromeliad, Triffid, Lily pad, Jungle Roses, Wild Jungle Flower, Poinsettia, a flowering Bush and Flowers at the Mountain Temple and Orchids (Creeping Orchid, Orchid Vine Plant, Purple Passion Orchid, Giant Orchid Plant, Pink Orchid, Rare Stream Orchid,Rare Golden Orchid with several other Orchids of various colors). She is dismayed to report that she found no daisies, but asks if any of our readers find a daisy growing in the jungle to let her know, as she would like to see the rarity and record it in her book.
