Chinese New Year Parade Treasure Hunt

The Chinese New Year Parade is fun, but it can seem really long and occasionally tedious, and you always end up moving around to get a better view or just because you're tired of standing in one place.

Enter CNYP Treasure Hunt... Fun to run around through the crowd following clues looking for various points in the city, winding around through the parade route. More of a challenge with a larger "team." (bathroom breaks? hungry? tired now of wandering?)

At every spot there were a few other clipboard-wielding teams searching for the clue, and if the thing became too popular, that could reduce the fun and intrigue. But last night, good fun team (if a bit scattered due to size?) and a nice excuse to roam from the Ferry Building to Chinatown and North Beach.

Oh, and and looks like we got 10 of the 17 "treasures," though I haven't looked yet to see if our answers are correct.

Nope... 9 right. On one, we were in the wrong spot; wrong answer.
