Saturday morning Matt pick me up for my birthday adventure, which started off with roses:) From there we began "The Amazing Race Birthday Style".
Following clues Matt put together on DVD (watched on Matts laptop) we navigated our way through the GTA and all the way up north (including camp:) to a variety of places special to us. A great big thank you to everyone who sent video birthday greetings which Matt used as parts of the clues!
Of course, it wasn't just as simple as figuring out clues, there were puzzles like this one and hunts putting me to work! There was even a personalized 1/2hour movie of Matt and me combining hollywood film, personal pics, and favorite songs! There also seemed to be other forces at work as clues "magically" appeared in a crowded food court or in the car while we went for a walk...
After 1100km of driving and 10 locations with accompanying video we arrived at the final destination (which was spelled out by letters on the dvd covers) My parents cottage! The treasure chest was sitting at the door...and this was the scene inside.
And, little did I know, this was more than an amazing race birthday...it was an Engagement Extravaganza! That's right... I am, and have, a fiance!! It was a perfect day and thank you to everyone who made it happen!
