This
year again I choose an easy way out. Each day I'm going to solve the Wordle
of the day, using as starter a word beginning with the letter of
the day. I plan to post the A-Z post around noon every day of April. As the alternative badges, as supplied by Lissa suggest travel I'll prefer travel-related words as starter words, and if at all possible, I'll avoid words containing the same letter more than once.
I'll maybe add a few words about my chosen starter word if fancy takes me and I have time and energy for it, else I'll just post the solution - or not in the case that I did not solve it.
Today my starting word is Visas.
The average today is 5.3 guesses out of 6, or very challenging. I am a bit above average here - but I feel a bit cheated. While looking for "how many Wordle solutions" out of curiosity and cited in O for Ocean, I read that Wordle does NOT use plural forms! I see now, searching further, that this was a half truth. Wordle does indeed use plurals, but only irregular ones.

Visas - To travel like we did through the countries behind the Iron Curtain, we needed lots of visas.
We spent at least a week waiting at embassies, consulates and whatnots and speak to often stuffy bureaucrats, only reluctantly giving us the required stampings in our passports. Some of them were beautiful, in multicoloured ink or flourishing fonts often in other alphabets. Later on we also acquired some in Arabic one of these even came with a stamp. I think it was the Egypt one.
No drama here, only quite a bit of train trips to Copenhagen, where all the embassies were - and a lot of time wasted waiting.
Waiting in line seems to be the norm for getting passports and such. I like the colorful stamps though I haven't seen many as I don't travel.
SvarSletStarter words are what makes wordle difficult - either it is a useful starter word or it's not. I guess if I use your starter word, it would also take me longer to get to the solution.
Have a lovely day.
I always start with the same word. Today I was lucky and my second guess was correct with only the last N to work with! Do passports even use stamps anymore? My long expired one did, but I thought I read it's not the same now.
SvarSletI can only imagine the amount of paperwork needed to go to so many countries as you’ve seen.
SvarSletNicely done on the Wordle.
I never waste 2 consonants or 2 verbs in guessing words. I've never come across a plural though in playing it every day since they started.

Stamps in Mum's old passport were not at all fancy and now I am disappointed because I know there are fancy ones out there.
