Scavenger Hunt Suggestions

Hi all!

I have been trying to think of a fun way for my husband and I to surprise each other on vacation... At first I thought I would create my own scavenger hunt/treasure hunt... But then decided that it wouldn't be any fun for me because I would already know what it was that he was searching for... So last night I started thinking....

All of you are SO great at trip planning and know so much about Disney that we thought we would ask for YOUR help Smile.

We would love it if you would private message each of us (Karlipants) and (MarkeyMouse) with fun tasks that can be done throughout the parks/resorts/cruiseline/etc. We are looking for about 20 tasks each, privately messaged to us so that we have absolutely no clue what we have to do for each other... If you have more than one idea, feel free to send as many as you would like!

Once we both get 20 tasks each from all of you, we will create index cards that have the task on them, with your "screen name" on it... And when the task is completed we will take a picture with the index card and task... And post it up here for all of you to see!

I thought it would be a fun way to get everyone on the board involved in our trip... And since you all know so much about WDW I thought who better to ask?

I'm looking forward to seeing what you all private message me! If you need to know more about our trip, check out our pre-trip report.

Thanks!!! mickey

Karli and Mark

Here is an updated tally of tasks per person:

Mark: 4
Karli: 6

Absolutely! Smile

Some idea's that I thought of were....

*Buy your honey a Christmas Ornament that reminds you of them and present it to him/her at dinner
*Surprise your sweetie with a sweet treat (aka dole whip) lol
*Recreate your proposal in front of Cinderella's castle
*Take a romantic walk around the resort holding hands the entire time

Things of that nature.. Hope that helps Smile

Ok so you want more of tasks to do versus things to find

Yep exactly, but things for us to find together would be fun also!

Mark likes:
*Music
*Anything Italian
*Food
*Guitars
*Beer

But is not big on "intense" rides

Karli likes:
*Music
*Anything Irish
*Food
*Animals
*Singing
*Rides

We both love trying different beers...Mark brew's his own so he loves sampling them.

Just thought i'd give a little personal info about both of us to help you all out.

Hi Karlipants can you just remind me which resort/s you are staying at and how long you are there for.

Hmm, I want to think of good ones! Planning on messaging them to you right now...hopefully they're not already thought of (I try to be creative, but it doesn't always work, haha).

For those who sent me tasks! Your ideas have been placed in sealed envelopes (mark is working on his) that will not be opened until the time is right! Here is the first look! Thank you so much for your help!
