Urban Adventure Quest

We just completed the Hollywood Urban Adventure Quest, and had an amazing time. Urban Adventure Quest is a «Amazing Race» type of event that you can do on your cell phone in many major cities across the Country.
You start at a designated location, in Hollywood it’s the corner of Hollywood and Highland. If you have pre-​purchased the adventure, simply log on with your cell phone, and follow the clues to the finish line.
You’ll have to go to different famous locations on Hollywood Blvd, and answer questions, solve puzzles, find clues, etc. You get points for every question you answer correctly. Ties are determined by which team completed the adventure with the fastest time. At some of the stops you also get a little history about he area/​location.
My family with children 8 and 10, loved exploring Hollywood and solving the puzzles. It was a great family adventure. Although Hollywood can get very «iffy» with all the homeless and addicts, if you complete the challenge during the day hours, you should have no problems.
The website says the adventure should take 2 – 3 hours. We completed the race in 1.5 hours, and the other family completed it in 2 hours. That is with small children. This adventure is not arduous, and can be completed by teams of all ages.
We raced against another family, and one family started 20 minutes ahead of the other, because you will be following the same path. Afterward we all went and had dinner together. Which made for a really fun family adventure.
Make sure to bring a small note pad, pencil/​pen, comfortable shoes, and reading glasses (if you need them).
We are all looking forward to doing Urban Adventure Quest in other cities.
