Spring Time Humpday Triviola

Thomas Skaggs, Foothills of Mount Level

Temps in the 70s here in Mount Level today. Bulbs are blooming. It's a good time to be here in the Heartland.

But today's triviola takes us far away from here. To the Marco Polo hotel in Dubai to be specific. Recently some of the staff set out to create a noteworthy achievement in wood. They were successful by the way. What did they achieve?

I have a feeling that Google would make this too easy, so I'll try without:

A model

From popsicle sticks (second choice toothpicks)

Of a famous structure; I'll say the Taj Mahal

Am I right on any count?

News of this probably irritated many people in China's Shenyang Province.

It's a loader of sorts. Think on it being round on one end and square on the other

You must have sniffed too much Soy Sauce-I answered the Great Wall/ Gary alluded to the sticks. He can pick up the Uni here in Florida.
