Hey guys, I know I mention this before and I got no response so I didn't pursue it But I was reading the Live From the 10/11 Cruise and they just did the Key West Scavenger Hunt and were raving about it. They had over 50 people participate and even had T-shirts made for the event with the words Key West ScavengEAR hunt. It really peak my interest so I called to get the details. We miss the general public hunt on Sunday (its at noon) but they plan private hunts as well (that is what the group from 10/11 did). They will customize the hunt to our wishes i.e. less walking, more kid friendly and start time. Figuring they just made one for the 10/11 DISers they probably have a great idea of what would work for us. (Plus its a great chance to wear those T-shirts again.) Figure we could do the hunt and be done with plenty of time for the sunset. Below is the info they sent me. The cost would be $20 per person and kids 10 and under are free, but we need at least 10 paying participates.

*Hunting for objects?
In addition to searching for the sites and answering the clues (all for points are counted at the end for prizes), there is an object named "PINKY".
