The co-ords will take you to a place where the answers to the quiz questions can be found. Access is free but only available 10am-5pm daily (excluding Christmas Day). Once inside, a directory board should give you a nudge in the right direction (if you don’t already know where to head).
You may be able to find answers to the quiz from sources other than the aforementioned. But please be aware that the “correct” answers will be considered to be those available at the location above. Use other “answers” at your own risk- and besides, a visit to the location above will be fun!
