Scavenger Hunt: Part 1

Yesterday, Murray and I were supposed to be at the beach. Unfortunately, Hawaii didn't seem to agree with us on this, because it poured rain all morning and threatened to continue for the rest of the day. What to do when beach day plans are suddenly derailed? Murray suggested an adventure.

You'd think coming up with an adventure when one lives in Hawaii would be easy, but having rainy weather and two bad knees makes that much more difficult. While asking the internet, I stumbled upon Treasure Hunts Hawaii, which gave Joe an idea.

Joe created a scavenger hunt for Murray and I. Each item had a point value and we had to find 1000 points worth of items and text pictures to Joe within a two hour time limit. It was us against the clock (and Joe). Here is the list of things we had to find:
