JUMP 1 • From your starting point in ETP Clot, jump to the valley that is the birth place of the only river in Catalunya flowing towards the Atlantic Ocean.
JUMP 2 • From this place, jump to the center of the largest island in the world (that is NOT a continent!)
JUMP 3 • Nice jump! Now, go to a salted sea which is considered to be the lowest spot on earth! There aren’t any fishes in it, are they?
JUMP 4 • There is a country on the roof of the world. Go to its capital and don’t forget the scarf! It’s quite cold up there!
JUMP 5 • What is the shortest way to cross from Asia to the United States? Meet you there!
JUMP 6 • Great! Now, it’s time to play the pirate! Have you ever heard about the island where buccaneers took shelter? Be careful! A lot of islands have a similar name, but there is only ONE safe place for us! Maybe this map can help you! Hurry up!
JUMP 7 • And talking about pirates: the famous Sir Francis Drake discovered a passage between two oceans that still has his name. Would you jump to there?
JUMP 8 • To the south of Drake Passage you can find a group of islands named after a Scottish archipelago which is our next meeting point. Can you jump to its capital?
JUMP 9 • Well done! Now meet you in the center of a great lake, source of the longest river in the world. Jump now!
JUMP 10 • Brilliant! Now you are about to face your very last jump in this challenge! This time you can CHOOSE YOUR DESTINATION, but mind this three conditions: • You MUST move to another continent. • You MUST jump to a city. • You CAN’T repeat any place you have already been before!
FINAL JUMP!! • GREAT WORK! You have become professional jumpers! And now, can you come back to ETP Clot to receive an ovation? We are waiting for you!
