Due to the recent data loss the original posts in this thread were lost. Below are the ones we were able to recover as best we can.
Here's my Canada room. I think British Columbia is beautiful so that's what I went with. When I think British Columbia I think, pine trees, lakes and camping. I also think of the Haida people who are known for their cool totems!
Here's my Mexican room.
Here's my outdoor French Cafe.

As far as I was able to see in pictures, the Greenland shark has some sort of spots all over its skin, so I tried to recreate that. Here's a bigger picture of the shark:

Challenge 12
Part 1:
This is my pet dressed as an Indian dancer.
Part 2:
This was really hard... But I gave it my best.
The taste of Chutney in my mouth
Reminds me of the times I used to walk
The streets of the incredible India…
I watched the Jungle from a Bungalow,
Imagining a Cheetah looks back from the shadow…
While a beautiful dancer with a Bangle on her wrist
Gracefully made her way
Towards some stranger lands,
Where a Guru quietly awaited for her on a Veranda
And where an Avatar of some sorts
Was teaching souls about the dance of life,
While the sun came down upon them all…
Challenge 13
Part 1:
I've decorated my profile inspired by - well - the coolest of the zodiac signs: the dragon. I used mostly red and yellow, colors that are very typical for China, red symbolizing hope and good luck, while yellow being the imperial color of old China.
You can see my profile right here: link
Part 2:
(I wish I would own a dragon to keep with the theme from part 1, but unfortunately, I don't...)
I chose the rabbit for this part. You said we can be as creative as we want with the picture, so I added some little things to make it look more like China (I hope). The green symbol in the middle is the Chinese symbol for rabbit. Also, my rabbit is wearing a water costume because the next year of the rabbit (2023) will be under the element water.

And this last entry got me eliminated... Still, the Amazing Race experience was great and I can't wait for the next season!

Challenge 5 - A French Room
Part 1 - A French Room
For this room, I was inspired by the cathedrals of Paris, France such as the Notre Dame de Paris (or Notre Dame Cathedral).
This cathedral is complete with candles, pews, flowers, and of course an organ and piano!
I tried to capture the heart of a Cathedral with a French feel.
It was a lot of fun to make!

Challenge 6 - An Australian Vacation Spot

Hi guys! Here's my entry for challenge 6!
Welcome to Ganz's newest vacation attraction... AUSTRALIA!
Complete with shopping, a wheel to spin, games, and so much more!
To start off the tour of this newest vacation spot, is the guide of the island Joey the Kangaroo!
(I envisioned him wearing the cave explorer outfit, but I unfortunately didn't have time to draw it that way!)
The Game
To start things off, there is a game in Australia!
It is called "Help the Sea Turtles Back to Sea."
People from all over the world flock to Australia to see the baby sea turtles hatch!
It is one of the many wonders of Australia!
And this game would be played like Dashing Dolphins, an old webkinz arcade game.
Only instead of featuring a dolphin, it would feature a turtle going through hoops and the ocean to try and make it back home!
For reaching the end of the game, you'd get a cool badge to display on your webkinz page, as well as a shiny new trophy to take home with you!
Note: If you want to play the old dashing dolphins game, you can check it out HERE.
Shopping
Of course, this newest getaway wouldn't be complete without a shopping store!
Australia is known for its nightlife and awesome shopping in the largest cities!
So it is only fitting that there is a shop here run by Joey!
Here's an example of the storefront:
(And City Beach is a fashion store in Australia)
Of course the stock would be rotating!
The following items Joey would keep in stock are:
Cave Explorer Outfit (Bottom, Hat, Shoes, Top) - Because of all the hiking there is to do in Australia!
Cave Explorer Outfit (Girl's) (Skirt, Hat, Shoes, Top) - Because of all the hiking there is to do in Australia!
Pink Explorer Outfit (Top, Hat, Shoes, Bottom) [SUPER RARE] - Like the other outfits, has to do with the hiking!
Pink Diving Bell Outfit (Flippers, Helmet, Top, Bottom) - Because of the Coral Reefs, diving is a popular past time in Australia!
Adventure Explorer Pack - As mentioned before, goes with Hiking.
Adventure Park Canteen - Also goes with hiking.
Beach Towel - Because a majority of people in Australia (80% I believe) live within 80 miles of a beach. Beaches are super popular there with a lot of diving and fishing.
"Meat Pie" - The jumbleberry pie is supposed to be a meat one! It is an object, and represents the meat pies that they love to eat in Australia!
A jar of vegemite - Vegemite is a super popular food item in Australia! This would be an object as well.
Decorative Microphone - Because of the Sydney Opera House!
Blufadoodle Comedy Mask - This mask is sold because of the famous Sydney Opera House!
Blufadoodle Tragedy Mask - Sold as a counterpart to Comedy Mask and is also because of the Opera House!
Underwater Garden - A reminder of the beautiful coral reefs
Koala Plush - Koalas are one of the native animals of Australia!
Dingo Plush - Dingos are also one of the native animals of Australia!
Joey Plush - A plush of Joey! How can we not have this as an item!?
Outback Wheel
And of course, a wheel was a necessity for this vacation spot!
This wheel is called the Outback wheel, because it is located near Ayers Rock in the new spot.
Here's what the Outback Wheel looks like:
The items you can win are as follows...
1. KC Coin Spaces - The three KC coins represent a random number of KC being awarded.
2. Salt Water Aqua Table - A table to take home and remind you of the beautiful coral reefs!
3. Diving Bell Outfit - Landing here awards you a random piece of Diving Bell Clothing!
4. Beet Root Burger - Landing on the burger space awards you the Beet Root Burger food item! Eating Beets on a hamburger is a popular thing to eat on a Hamburger in Australia!
5. A gold nugget - Australia has what is called "Gold Cost" Which is a coastal city on the east side of Australia! This gold nugget gives you one gold nugget on a plague that you can take home and remember the gold cost!
6. Desert Jumper Jeep - Landing on this space gives you an awesome desert jumper jeep vehicle! Your very own transportation through the Outback!
7. Theater Stage Bed - The theater stage bed is meant to remind you of Australia's very own Sydney Opera House!
Coffee Shop Hangout
Lastly on our Australian Stop, we have the Coffee Shop Hangout!
One of the charming things about Australia is the coffee shops!
I read several sources that said Starbucks don't do well here, because of all the "mom and pop" coffee shops!
There is just something appealing about them that you can't get anywhere else!
And its the perfect place to just hang out! Plus the coffee is good too!

Challenge 11 - Mexico Room
Part 1 - A Mexican Room
Here is my Mexican Desert Room!
Complete with rocks, cactus, and other desert shrubs!
It looks like Peppa is going on a little adventure through the desert.
I'm glad she's bringing a canteen along because it can get hot under that beating sun!
And just for fun, here a Mexican Restaurant Room I already had made!
I had to include it because it goes with the theme! But the room above is my "entry entry" LOL

Challenge 14 - Canada Room
Part 2: Canada Room
Let me set the stage to what it has to do with Canada.
In Ottawa, Ontario there is a few buildings in a gothic style.
These buildings house the Parliament of Canada and the area is known as Parliament Hill.
My room depicts Parliament Hill on Canada Day.
Canada Day occurs on July 1st, and celebrates the British North America Act.
Canada Day celebrations usually involve outdoor public events such as parades, carnivals, festivals, barbecues, air and maritime shows, fireworks, and free music concerts!
The largest cultural displays and concerts on Canada Day happen on Parliament Hill!

Challenge 16 - Scotland
Part 1: A Golf Room
Welcome to "Old St Andrews Golf Course."
St. Andrews is a city in Scotland, named after Saint Andrew the Apostle.
The town is home to the University of St Andrews, the third oldest university in the English-speaking worlf.
The university is a major part of the city and during term time, students make up approximately one-third of the town's population. St Andrews has a population of 16,680.
St Andrews is also known worldwide as the "home of golf".
The Royal and Ancient Golf Club was founded here in 1754, and exercises legislative authority over the game worldwide (except United States and Mexico) today.
Visitors travel to St Andrews in great numbers for several courses ranked amongst the finest in the world.
The Golf Course I designed is based off the Old St Andrews Golf Course in Scotland.
Here's what it looks like:

The Finale - Bahamas Room
Part 3: Bahamas Room
I found this to be the most challenging!
I wanted to do a beach, but I just didn't want to do a beach.
I looked at several beaches in the Bahamas as well as different resorts and stories.
In the end, I settled on doing my version of Nassau, Bahamas.
Nassau is the largest city in the Bahamas as well as the capital located on New Providence Island.
The population is well over 200,000 with 70% of the population living here.
The majority of land space on this island is occupied by buildings.
The tropical climate and natural beauty of the Bahamas have made Nassau a popular tourist destination.
Here is my Nassau room!
You can see the city of Nassau to the left, and some of the coastal area to the right!
It looks like some tourists are enjoying the nice weather right now!

Part 2:
Egypt has a lot of fascinating monuments and places, but what I would love the most to visit would be, of course, the pyramids of Giza, more exactly the Pyramid of Kheops. The idea of standing by it and looking at the same sight people have looked for more than 4000 years is just incredible. Not only the age, but also the magnitude of the monument make it look like a gate that units generations. Also, some personal reasons add up to this desire of mine. When I was little, my father used to tell me about his years in Egypt and the pyramids were my favourite elements. Standing were he stand, seeing what he saw - that would mean a lot to me.

Challenge 7
Challenge 8
Part I:
I got scared at the beginning, but it wasn't so bad.
Part II:
I figured most of the other contestants will go for an ancient Greek room, so I decided to go for a contemporary traditional house.
Traditional Greek houses have white walls and a lot of white items. Also, they normally have wood flooring and furniture, with splashes of color here and there. The exposed pots, the traditional tiles in the kitchen, the flowers in the window, old kitchen appliances, the beach feeling - these are all things you might found in a Greek home.
(you can imagine that in this context, the Corinthian pedestals look a bit forced, but I tried my best to make them fit)
Here are some pictures I used for inspiration:

Bananza Score:
Part 2:
This was not hard at all! My favourite South American animal is for sure the Jaguar! Being a feline fan I can only love this beautiful creature that combines some of the features of the tiger with the beautiful coat of the leopard. It’s a majestic cat, bigger and stronger than the leopard, but with the grace that the cat family is known for. Its speed, agility and strong bite made it one of the most feared and admired animals in the pre-columbian period, being often in the center of some mythological believes and cults. For example in the Maya civilization , the Jaguar was regarded as a companion in the spiritual world and a protector of the royal family, while in the Aztec mythology it was considered s symbol of power, being associated with the ruler and powerful warriors.

Challenge 6
For this challenge I created the Desert Adventure Vacation, inspired by the Australian desert. I tried to make as many pictures as I could because I don’t excel at explaining.
I made (something of) a map:
As you can see, there are 5 places marked on the map:
1. Digger’s Valley
2. Jumping Joey
3. Uluru Adventure
4. The Desert Camp
5. Kinzpot
1. Digger’s Valley
Every time you take your pet on a vacation, you receive 3 digs.
Among the prizes available are these:
Aboriginal Wallpaper, Red Koala Shirt, Blue Koala Shirt, Kangaroo Plush.
2. Jumping Joey
This is a game where you must simply choose one of the four boxes – if you are lucky enough to pick a box with a green leaf you receive 100 KC and the chance to continue. But if you get a dead leaf, you lose all the KC and the game is over. Every time, there is a 1 in 4 chance you’ll pick a dead leaf.
3. Uluru Adventure
A game divided into 10 levels at the end of which the player must reach the top of Uluru rock. There is a time for each round and also a lot of dangers in the caves. But you get the chance to pick up coins for some bonus points.
If you press the “Instructions” button, this will appear:
If you press the “Play Now” button, this will appear (and the game will begin):
4. The Desert Camp
A hangout place in the middle of the desert. (But it has ice cream! )
5. Kinzpost
This is where you can send your friends a card to let them know how much fun you are having on your vacation.

Challenge 7
I was pretty stuck with this one so I decided to approach the challenge from a different angle. So instead of choosing an animal from Madagascar, I chose one from... Madagascar... the movie.
This is my entry, a Webkinz pet based on Mortimer, one of the lemurs from the movie:
It's PSI would be King's Feet Armchair (an armchair shaped like a giant lemur foot, because he's obsessed with King Julian's Feet) and the PSI would be the Mountain of Fruits Plate.

While a beautiful dancer with a Bangle on her wrist
Gracefully made her way
Towards some stranger lands,
Where a Guru quietly awaited for her on a Veranda
And where an Avatar of some sorts
Was teaching souls about the dance of life,
While the sun came down upon them all…
Challenge 13
Part 1:
I've decorated my profile inspired by - well - the coolest of the zodiac signs: the dragon. I used mostly red and yellow, colors that are very typical for China, red symbolizing hope and good luck, while yellow being the imperial color of old China.
You can see my profile right here: link
Part 2:
(I wish I would own a dragon to keep with the theme from part 1, but unfortunately, I don't...)
I chose the rabbit for this part. You said we can be as creative as we want with the picture, so I added some little things to make it look more like China (I hope). The green symbol in the middle is the Chinese symbol for rabbit. Also, my rabbit is wearing a water costume because the next year of the rabbit (2023) will be under the element water.
