We have a large family cruising on the July 13, 2019 Symphony OTS sailing and I want to organize a bar crawl for one afternoon at sea and a week-long scavenger hunt of photos taken around the ship. Has anyone participated in either of these kinds of activities in the past? If so, any pointers or suggestions on how to organize or make the activity bigger or better?
For the Bar Crawl - we'll have a checklist of about ten or so bars on the ship, travel together from bar to bar and enjoy a beverage, then on to the next. I'll try to organize by deck but I know from past cruises some bars may not be open, etc., during the time of our activity.
For the Scavenger Hunt - I'll make a list of 30-40 locations, items, or people on the ship and assign a point value to each (easy stuff 1 point, hard stuff 5 or 10 points, etc.,). Hunters will need to take a photo with each and at the end of the week we gather together and see who has the most points. I've done this on the Navigator OTS in the past (organized by the cruise) and it was a blast, but a little chaotic since we only had an hour to work out list. I figure giving the group the whole week, but making it a little more challenging would be a fun activity.
Any thoughts or pointers from experience are welcome.
If you are on the same sailing and want to play along, let me know! Happy to have you join us.
Thanks
