## The prompt

Fill in the parts in [square brackets], or leave them and the AI will ask you for them.

```text
I've attached the visitor guide for a trip we're taking. Turn it into an interactive, animated web app my family can explore before we go.

Who's going: [WHO'S GOING, e.g. two adults and kids aged 8 and 12]
How long we have: [TIME AVAILABLE, e.g. one full day]
What we love: [YOUR INTERESTS, e.g. animals, easy walks, history]

Build these sections: a clickable overview of the main areas with a short animated intro to each, a must-see list ranked for our group, a simple day plan with rough walking or travel times, practical info (hours, food, rules, what to bring) pulled only from the guide, and a five-question fun quiz for the kids. Use only facts from the attached guide. If something important isn't in it, say so instead of guessing. Make it colorful, easy to tap on a phone, and readable for a 55-year-old without glasses.
```
