Thanks again Third Gate team for hosting another super fun MouseAdventure!! It was SO GOOD to be solving quests back in the parks again. We definitely missed it.

The Churro Chasers are still riding high from our success and can’t believe there were so many solid Advanced teams within a few points of each other.

There were a few moments where the direction-less Advanced quests gave us pause, but the Aha! moment of realizing that we needed the letters “Under the C(‘s)” for Part II of the Tomorrowland quest was incredibly satisfying.

We’re the type of team that doesn’t write down our final answers on the answer sheet until the final minutes of the game, so when we had to turn-in the Part I quests this time, we had a brief moment of panic. We hadn’t written down the final answer for the first part of the Tom Sawyer Island quest anywhere except the page we turned in! Fortunately for us, you were cruel enough to send us back to the island 🙂 so a little detour during Part II allowed us to confirm our final answer again. We learned our lesson when we turned in Part I for the other two quests.

While we missed the regular Eye Spies, we really enjoyed photo-less versions as well. After realizing they were grouped by land, we were able to do one final pass to the lands we were missing from in order to collect a few final answers. We wouldn’t be opposed to a version of trivia that was all questions you could find answers to around the park… We also missed looking for the Hidden Quest, but it was also a relief not having that looming in the back of our minds during the game.

All in all, it was such a fun day. Joe, Chris, David and Steph – you did a wonderful job creating a challenging and fun game, and hosting so many teams at the same time! Thank you to the volunteers as well for helping to make the game a reality for the players! Already looking forward to the next one!
