So it's my birthday tomorrow. 29. Yee-haw. I must admit, I kind of wish it was just 30 already. Like how long can we drag this out? I know that some of you will say that I should embrace my youth, yadda yadda.. but I feel ready to move on from my 20s. Oh well....whatever. I WILL enjoy the last year in my 20s, because I enjoy life. Anyway, I digress.....
So for my birthday, I planned a Los Angeles Scavenger Hunt for my friends and family. It was a total success and worth every single minute of planning.
Here is how it went down:
We gathered at 4 pm. Mingled, ate, drank. Formed alliances and enemies. (Well everyone else did).
Each car was a team and there were 7 teams. After about an hour or so of anticipation. I gave them the rules. There were items to photograph as well as items to obtain. I also added some riddles that were worth more points. Each photo that was taken had to include a print out photo of me. LOL. And then they were off. They had 3 hours to get as much as possible and then figure out the last riddle that led them to the final destination - a bar on the east side - where I was there waiting. (p.s. while the teams were hunting, I treated myself to a mani/pedi). The end results were amazing!!!!
Below are some of my favorite photos from the teams. (I am still waiting to gather them all so that I can make an album). But honestly, there are so many good ones, I keep wavering on which are my favorites.
If you ever consider planning a hunt like this, I'd be glad to lend some tips/advice. AND, I highly recommend it. My party goers had such a good time, there are rumors of rematches!
Like I said - Total success.
love love,
Jen

Women hit their prime in their 30s, so you're right to be excited to get there. The best is yet to come for you.
