Photo Scavenger Hunt Challenge #12 (September 1 - October 31, 2012)

I am posting this a bit early because next week is super hectic for me and I don't want to forget! Plus, if anyone is trying to get prepared for an upcoming trip (like ME!), you can go ahead and print this out and pack it with your things

The months of September & October are full of the excitement of Fall in many places and bring many festivities to the Disney parks whether it be WDW or Disneyland (or any others for that matter). There are also some unusual, lesser known (and probably made up, but fun nonetheless) holidays during these two months. So for this Scavenger Hunt, we will focus on some of those with a “Disney Twist”. Also, there are THIRTY ONE challenges (and a couple bonus ones at the end for "cruisers") but you ONLY have to complete 15 to qualify for the PP!

1. In celebration of “back to school” and “National Apple Month” in Sept. and “Apple Jack Month” in Oct. – find something apple-related
2. “National Waffle” week in Sept. starts today – are you eating Mickey Ear Waffles this morning?
3. Happy Labor Day in Sept. – find something very “American” to photograph
4. It’s “Fall Hat Month” in Sept. – photograph a member in your party wearing a “Disney” hat!
5. October is “National Drum Month” – can you snap someone beating on or using a DRUM?
6. It’s "Mad Hatter Day" in Oct. – photograph something “Alice in Wonderland” themed!
7. It’s Dapper Day in Disneyland today – photograph a Dapper Dan or someone wearing their “Sunday best”
8. Night of Joy is taking place in Walt Disney World in September – photograph a “joyful” moment!
9. Today is “Wonderful Weirdos Day” in Sept.– can you get “goofy” with a character or capture someone in your party being silly?
10. Tomorrow is “Make Your Bed Day” in Sept. – do you have a cool bed in your hotel room?!
11. “It’s My Party” day in Oct – snap a photo of people dancing and having a party!!
12. September is also “National Classical Music Month” – can you photograph something musical whether its musical notes spotted somewhere or a musical performance?
13. We all love “National Chocolate Day” in Sept.! Grab a Mickey Bar and say CHOCOLATE!
14. Halloween has started to show its spooky face – photograph something extra scary or something else Halloween-related like PUMPKINS!
15. “Hispanic Heritage Month” in Sept. has started today - how has Disney honored this amazing culture?!
16. September is a month that celebrates honey – can you spot something Pooh Bear related?
17. Don’t forget to find a hidden Mickey!!
18. Today is “National Cheeseburger Day” in Sept.– eat and/or photograph one in celebration!
19. Aargh Matey – it’s “National Talk Like a Pirate Day” in Sept.. Could you go all day speaking in “pirate-ese”? Photograph something pirate related, or walk the plank!
20. Today is “The Sweetest Day” in October – can you photograph two characters spotted holding hands!
21. Today is “International Peace Day” in Sept.– take a photo in front of your favorite spot giving us some “peace signs”
22. It’s “Elephant Appreciation Day” in Sept. and in honor of the new Storybook Circus opening in WDW, photograph something elephant related.
23. Oktoberfest begins in many places – photograph a member of your party with a nice cold one (doesn’t HAVE to be beer)
24. Today is “Family Day” in Sept.– no matter who you’re roaming the parks with, take a photo as a group!
25. October is “National Popcorn Popping Month” – celebrate with a bag of some popped yumminess and snap away!
26. It’s “Johnny Appleseed Day” in Sept. – if you haven’t seen or don’t remember – the character Johnny Appleseed sings “The Lord is Good to Me” in the vintage Disney hit “Melody Time”. Find something VINTAGE Disney to photograph!
27. Today is “National Tell A Story Day” in Oct. – find some sort of mural, book, painting, etc that “tells a story”.
28. October 1 is “World Vegetarian Day” – so in honor of all the Disney animals out there, photograph your favorite “TAIL” as it walks by…
29. My personal favorite – “National Coffee Day” in Sept – coffee carts can sometimes be hard to find in Disney parks – photograph your favorite cup or cafĂ©.
30. September is also “National Courtesy Month” so THANK YOU FOR PLAYING ALONG! Snap a photo of a member of your party giving a curtsy with or without a Disney Princess!
31. BOO! It’s Halloween on Oct 31! Can you spot any Disney VILLAIN lurking around?!

EXTRA CREDITS FOR “CRUISERS” (OR IF YOU JUST FEEL UP TO THE CHALLENGE!)
1. Because its Native American Day on Sept. 28 and because Indians are known for their quiet tracking skills, photograph a pair of “footprints” you’ve found or even your own footprints in the SAND!
2. September is “Baby Safety Month” so photograph some sort of Disney-themed safety element, whether it’s your life jacket lessons or the emergency boats.
3. Its “Teddy Bear Day” on Sept. 9 – can you spot anything Duffy the Bear themed?!
4. September 21 is “Miniature Golf Day” – come up with a creative way to photograph yourselves on the ship’s mini golf course!
5. In honor of Finding Nemo 3D debuting on September 14th and October being “National Seafood Month”, find something “fishy” to photograph!


Here's What Your Playing For:



The Challenge Rules:


1. I will be posting a list of photos to capture... you must gather a minimum of 15 of the items on the photo scavenger hunt list.

2. You should be able to do this at WDW or DL or any of the international parks, or on a Disney cruise (this can be over several days in any Disney park, or even on a cruise/parks trip, just as long as its within the time frame listed)

3. You must be visiting a Disney park between 9/1/2012 and 10/31/2012

4. I want photos from this visit, please be honest here, and find some way of proving this (photo of the park map you received the time frame you go or scan your park ticket, or a receipt for example).

5. You must use your own photos, not someone else's, unless its a photopass photo or taken by someone else in your party.

6. Then when you get home post a layout of your photos in this thread.

7. Label the photos or have a guide numbering and listing the photos. I need to be able to easily check off that you have gotten at least 15 of the items listed (you can add more than 15 if you want to).

You should post your LO in the Photo Scavenger Hunt Gallery.

Then post your LO back in this thread, with a link to the LO in the gallery and forum.

Please be sure to leave some comments for your fellow challenge participants in the gallery.


**You must post a layout by midnight (east coast time) November 15th 2012 to qualify for the challenge prize.**

I don't see why not! Just combine them into the same layout, or onto a two page spread

I am so excited about my trip to DL for Mickey's Halloween Party. We leave tonight and do't return until late Tuesday night.
I usually wouldn't ask this, but . . .

can I have a little extension? Pretty please, with sugar on top

With only 1 day to do the actual LO after I return and that being Halloween itself with a party during the day, decorating to do for the treaters and then getting the kids ready for trick or treating, I don't think that I will have any down-time to do the LO until Nov 1st.
