You come back here to gibe me the link to your blog post.How much time do I have?
The hunt starts April 30th and ends May 31st 2009 midnight CEST
And then?
Then I will put up a voting booth in the Sidebar of this blog where people can vote for your entries until June 15th.
And what does the winner get?
The winner can choose between either 8 postcards, 3 Greeting Cards, 2 magnets or 2 key chains.

I'm sure you'll need some breaks in between
What's better than taking some pics?
Best wishes for your finals though!
I have a very busy schedule this next month - but I'll come back and let you know if my camera takes the bait!!!
I assume a "verboten" sign just means a sign prohibiting something, right? Not necessarily one that's actually in German. ('Cause that could be a trifle hard to find around here!)
No big deal

Hope your camera agrees to find some time though
Jazz,just mail me your address and I send you a postcard from overseas
Grin, I found that Americans love to use the term "verboten",so I used it here.
It can be any sign that forbids something, yes

Indeed you are, Ang


You are in, Tracey
okey, I think I'll join this Challenge 2nd Scavenger Hunt of 25 pics. It can take a while I find all pics and then I'll put them into my Flickr page But IN WERE WILL I THEN PUT THEM HERE ON YOUR PAGE ps. Thanks for your comment in my blog
I may have trouble with the beach since we live a four hour drive from the coast here in Australia. I might also have trouble with foreign stamps/flags etc but I'll try.
What happens if you miss a couple of these??
Boo
You can put them on flickr, that's fine with me.
Just come back here, whenever you have them there and give me a link.
Or make a blog post entry with little thumbnails for your flickr pics, I can tell you how, in case you don't know.
In any case, I'll for now link you with your blog as a participant and whenever you have the pics up, you let me know the link and location

Dan, don't worry, I'm the Master in screw ups

Glad you are on board again
Can't wait to see what you come up with this time

Boo, glad you are on board.
Hey, just be creative.
Paint a flag and take a pic of it.
Build your miniature beach with sand and shells
I live in Hungary. We have NO beach
nice contest
Going to Helsinki on Saturday - I can take photos like a souvenir or a foreign flag...hahah...
Have a great wednesday wednesday!



The beach is about an hour trip for me, and I don't expect to make it. However, I'm going to take a pic of any 'mini-beach' that I can find. There's a canal and series of creeks near-by. I will be exploring them, looking for a sandy spot for my photo.
Just an idea.

13. is in wrong place but it is there (I had big problems with my computer

and now my favouriteof this pic is A FISH (and the face of that girl )
so I'm in

Changed the link, Nukke, thanks

BG

@Amanda
"Verboten" are all signs that forbid you to do something

Thanks for joining
! Danke
war der extra für mich?!
Auch einige, die sich nie zu Wort melden... seufz
I like the new items to find! I missed the last photo hunt you had. Would love to join in on this one if I may. You can find me at Sherrie's Stuff here: http://sherrie-plummer.blogspot.com/ Have a great day!
Sherrie

Glad you found it!
I can't WAIT to start!! That will be some great fun again
Thanks for adding me :-) By the way, I'm from the Philippines :-)

Added that, Ria, thanks!
But hey, you can be creative on that one
We went for a long drive yesterday and i managed to get a few... but street mirror ~ i don't know if we have those around here (but i think i have a fun idea). And manhole cover... are they more interesting in Hungary, cause here they are pretty boring.
Having tons of fun looking for my list!

Grin, alexa, I have seen great ones in many places, but I take a boring one too, no problem

Looking forward to your shots

Thanks for joining up
!
I haven't seen a traffic mirror before, but I do have a couple of ideas for photos...
I missed a perfect photo op. for a manhole cover! ARGH!

Welcome aboard!
Changed, Matthew, thanks!
Is it mean that i finished done the task? Or need any others step to complete the task?.
!And I love what you came up with
Adding you asap, Ladynred
Thanks for the notification.
I am in busy weeks, don't count me in
but I will try to hunt them all anyway
Can I join the list at the last minutes?
Not a problem at all.
I didn't write it underneath this hunt, but feel free to take whatever you like.
There are some more ideas in the first hunt. Just follow the scavenger hunt "tag"

Have fun!
Will put you on the list asap, quilly.
Have fun
I should have listened to Boo and joined earlier.
I am thinking to make the deadline 15th of June, since a few people have some struggling going on it seems.
The finishing date will stay May 31st 2009

And a link to this post will be fine.
The voting booth will be in the top of the sidebar again.
I think that's easiest to find it.
Happy hunting
It was long but enjoyable hours of labor. Mine is up with a few days to spare. Thanks to the fact that today is Dragonboat Festival Day and I have a little time to do the final editing.
Perhaps as this is going to a regular affair, we will keep it to a dozen themes in the future? More manageable.
I don't think there'll be one over summer.
Next one will be in autumn and I think I'll keep the 25 Items to keep it tough

Now I've got to start visiting them all!
Yeah, sometimes this plugin lets you post a link and then again not.
*shrug*
The next update is coming in July, maybe some things will get better
My scavenger hunt photos are up.

Janice.
