And this is how the scavenger hunt unfolded...

Firstly to the LEGO set, where I thought I could at least get a shield from.

Flowers in the garden, not so difficult either.

A spider I kept in a glass jar for so long it died :(

Let me explain why this is my power spot.

At the bottom it looks like an endless set of stairs that makes you wonder where the elevator is.

But when you get to the top you feel awesome and that you are ready to tackle anything in the world!

There are two pillars and they belong in a set?

You couldn’t really call this graffiti... it is more like street art :)

This was such a hilarious shirt, even if the reference to lightning is just so random :D

Just in case you didn’t believe I had a spider in that jar :p

I am putting this forward as the most creative entry, what do you think @bengy?

Can you see the single lane swimming pool up in the apartment complex?

Those that I couldn’t capture in real life, I didn’t not try to get images of - hats off to those that found a cave and dream catcher and anything else I have missed :p

Was that the Aztec for the most creative?

Now if only the Jacob's Ladder stairs also behave like a real Jacob's Ladder!

Actually I meant the most creative item in either one of our entries - the lightning in the Harry Potter action figure :D

I think there is a place called Jacob's Ladder and it is actually a mangrove swamp, so not a place where you want to see lightning because there's plenty of water around!

Ah, I couldn't figure out who the action figure was! Now I see it!

I also didn't manage very creative entries this time, I ran out of time. I had some in mind, but didn't make it...

Jacob's Ladder was on my backup list for lightning! LOL I was a little too intimidated by it though given that several videos warned of unskilled people trying this.

The voltage and current were too high for me to build. It is pretty dangerous...

Yes! :) Although it is very fascinating

I love your origami art, @plushzilla They have become your trademark. I received a tiny little origami with an order that I placed two years ago and I keep it on my window because someone took the time to make it and add a little 'happy' to my order. Once upon a time, I 'tried' to get into making origami with my kids and it was a complete disaster - it ended by being a 'guessing game' - "what do you think this is?" LOL So I have all the respect in the world for those that can make origami - it takes a lot of patience and concentration, memory and fine tuned motor skills ;)

Wow, those stairs! Yes, indeed that would be a power spot. Hurts just looking at them but would give a sense of accomplishment. I had a similar feeling climbing back up the side of that mountain to get a picture of the cave LOL Humbled me much! Do you walk these stairs every day?!

I think your post is full of creative perspective - which I really enjoyed walking through with you. I didn't think about the 'legos' shield!

I wish that you had more time to get all the items and I know that some people don't live in places that have caves or history of Native American culture - makes it a little more difficult and challenging than those that live in the U.S. But I do love and appreciate the story and creativity that you weaved into your post - however, 'poor spider' ;)

I would like to think that I have patience, concentration, memory and fine motor skills, but actually I just tend to make things that I find easier to do and remember :p Like most people I just started by making 'simple' things and gradually improved my skills over time. I have a feeling that instructions for origami are made to be more difficult than they need to be so that people like me can go around and teach people :D

Actually these stairs are next to a park in the city, and many of the teenagers use it as a spot to practice their parkour moves. I think if I was walking up and down those stairs every day I would be super fit as well!

I really enjoyed everyone's story with the scavenger hunt, and I am looking forward to the outcome and the next round of the IFC :)

Yes, those instructions for origami are quite intense! LOL In any case, good for you for sticking with it and finding an easier way into more complicated pieces :) You do have patience!

Oh that shirt and graffiti looks amazing! Haha.

And your power spot, wow. You must be big on cardio. 👍 I'd go weak after I go up all of that. 😂

Yes, you feel physically weak after all those steps, but mentally you feel great! And that's why it is my power spot :D I don't know who made that shirt but the kitty has got some serious power!

Oh I see, so that's why. 😁👍

Love your solution for lightning! Also your power spot. I'm working on creating my power spot this week, and it just hit me that physical exercise has to be a part of it.

Argueably, the woman's earring on that street art is a dreamcatcher...

Well spotted! I don't know if the judges are going to give me points for that, but I'll be happy to claim it :D
