Treasure Hunt from Ipoh to Penang




Last Saturday and Sunday, 1st - 2nd of August, I joined Treasure Hunt Ipoh to Penang which are fully sponsored and organized by Tay Ibrahim & Co(Lawyer Firm). Petrol, Hotel, food are given. Each team containing 4 participant. So, me with my three best friends together in team 11. The owner of the car which are truly best chosen driver (can't get permission to mention his name here) and the navigator was always this man called "Mat" and me and one more best buddy Za..(not true name) were the one will break the clues within our journey to the north. Our team known as a weird name "Osman Bakar Cap Angsa Emas" indeed had a spirit to win this Treasure Hunt. But we failed in the end. One of the clues sound like this, "Bedazzled actress IT's address"? but we just found shophouse signboard like "Italia Mia Restaurant" as what we thought Mia is one of the character in the Bedazzled film and the first 2 alphabets are starting with IT which are related to the IT address. We found another signboard, "Z3 Ozone.net", Z is related to the actress Elizabeth Hurley and ".net" is end word of IT address. That was our answer. But, that wasn't hit the true answer. Actually we didn't realize that there are another signboard show "www.e-hurley.com" and this is the correct one. haha..funny ritee!! There were 30 clues we need to find the answers within our journey to Penang. We found less than 15, I guess. From 9.30am from Ipoh and finally we completed all the tulips at 5.00pm before start moving to the island by Ferry. Unlucky, in Penang town, we lost because the navigator lost. Haha! Funny part. We should rest at Hotel room or swimming in hotel's pool, but we end up our journey at 12km far far away from the Hotel. We arrived at Hotel The Northam All Suite at 7.00pm, one hour late from our expected time. That night activity was a presentation of the answers and the prizes and consolations. Dinner theme was Retro Flower..I think so. But most of them (participants) didn't follow the theme. It is not their fault. huhu! I really had a good moment with all my friends including other teams in this Treasure Hunt by Tay Ibrahim & Co. We were just a firstimer and noob in this kind of activity and in future, since we are already know the rules of the game, there will no other champions except us (Osman Bakar Cap Angsa Emas). In future Treasure Hunt, we will be the one reach the Hotel first!
