I'm home! I have really long days by the time I get done commuting. I know the day is starting to wind down, Melissa but I needed to have a bit of dinner before I came to the boards. I know it's a bit selfish of me; isn't it?
I've been excited to sit down and continue writing. Welcome to the story Lizzy, Wendy and Michelle. I'm so happy to have you along for my adventure. I do have an amazing family; they love to create special things like this to show me how much they love and appreciate me.
So my first couple of posts on the thread were live, as they were actually happening to me. I was typing and walking at the same time. (I'm actually rather impressed that I could do it.) Unfortunately, my fingers were have problems keeping up and by teh time I got the 5th clue, I was 2 clues behind in posting. I bought myself some time by claiming I had to go to the restroom and instead of using the facilities, I stepped aside and finished typing the last of the third clue.
One of the reasons I was having a hard time keeping up and trying to type as I walked was DH wasn't sure about wait times or crowd levels so he didn't plan any time for the rides. I asked if I could see the Tiki Room show as it was getting ready to start just 4 minutes after we walked up to the podium. DH said we really didn't have the time. I was kind of bummed. We haven't seen it in a while and I've been wanting to do it.
So, I got my clue, rushed over to BTMMRR to get the next one and went off to IaSW for my 4th clue. I had no idea how involed the CM were and talking to the CM who gave me the next clue gave me a hint. All anyone knew was they were asked to give me the sealed envelopes when I came to them. I shared my previous clues with the CM who seemed impressed with my interactive gift. I couldn't tell him what was in the envelopes because they all said "Do Not Open" on them. All the CM were tight lipped about how DH was doing all of this. I still couldn't believe that Disney was letting him orchestrate a personal scavenger hunt. I felt like the most VIP guest they had.
The clue on this envelope took me a moment longer than the rest. My mind was racing and I was on an adrenaline rush. What I read was:
One of the things that threw me was the emerald coat. I was trying to think of a character in a green coat that was also associated with either something to drink or drink out of. After a moment I figured out where I needed to go.
