9th Hospis Malaysia Charity Treasure Hunt – Results

Posted by Mike On April - 25 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

What an adventure my team had.  The car developed some problems very early into the hunt. We had to change car and from then on it was a mad rush playing  catch up.  A team member got sick from all that darting  in and out of traffic  at an incredible speed.  To add to that, we had trouble looking for one of the treasure from Karak to Kuantan!

Out of the 5 questions, Q1 was the only challenging question. The rest Q2- Q5 were answered by most.

A few of the fundr(aise)r = aise. returned – esia

Answer: Indonesia ( country )

Lady singer = refers to that outrageous  Lady Gaga

Last two Oscars = R and S

Grand = noble , Saga = story

Answer: Grand Saga


Q3:The hamper list – could be for functions.

A bit of knowledge needed here.

It was a very last minute decision to join this walk hunt today. Luckily they had walk-in registration before the start of the hunt.

A few weeks back,  I hid the Astro card because the boys were watching too much TV and I did a little treasure hunt for them to look for the card. Ever since then, they have been asking me to do another one for them but I never did. I’ve always wanted to bring the boys to a hunt, and since this was an in-door and a short hunt, it was  ideal to  get them started.  I went today with no expectations at all to win anything.  So coming in at 7th is really a bonus.
