I use to love reading the names of villages as you enter or leave a village.
We had a very interesting thread a few years ago on how the villages got their names.

Correct.
Distance from Supenaam to Better Success = 32 miles.
32 miles divided by 16MPH = 2 hours.
10:45AM + 2 hours = 12:45PM.
You get first prize.

That's right.
Distance from New Amsterdam to Best Coffee Land = 9.9 miles
Time to travel outbound = 3 hours
Time to walk back to NA = 3 hours
Time spent with friend = 1 hour
Total time = 7 hours
1:00PM + 7 hours = 8:00PM
You and Django clocked in same time with the correct answer.

Good morning. Here's a warm-up quiz:
Anjali has got a new Honda Civic and has decided to take a drive from Georgetown to Loo River/Creek on the Soesdyke-Linden Highway. Anjali started driving at 2:00PM and maintains an average speed of 15 MPH on the busy roadway. At Craig a policeman flags her down, asks to see her documents, takes his own sweet time "examining" them while furtively eyeing Anjali. He makes small talk and she is delayed for 10 minutes. Continuing her journey at the same rate of speed, what time will Anjali arrive at Loo Creek?

Correct.
Distance from Georgetown to Loo Creek/River = 45 miles
Time to cover distance at 15 MPH = 3 hours
Add policeman's delay = 3 hrs 10 mins
Arrival time = 2:00PM + 3 hrs 10 mins = 5:10PM
