Thanks guys, I really think that everyone who played in these word contests deserves lots of kudos. We couldn’t have done it without bouncing ideas off of each other. What a great community spirit there is here at Gamezebo. And special thanks to Margie for the great puzzle and all the effort she put in by sifting through all of our answers.
Now let’s go play Hidden Expedition Amazon!

I couldn´t figure it out so I bought it instead... -
Well, here are my thoughts on what it was like working through this word puzzle.
Imagine a huge maze. Not a small maze like in Dream Chronicles 2, but a really huge maze. There is this maze master (her initials are MB) and she puts this wonderful aromatic luscious piece of cheese at the end of the maze. She gives us all a little whiff of the cheese then opens the door and lets us into the far end of this gigantic maze.
Being the cute little furry ingenious mice that we are, we scurry about in a frenzy. As we bump into one another in the maze we wiggle our little whiskers at each other, smile greetings and head off in search of the prize.
After the first night of searching we are all pretty tired. But we have made some progress through the maze and we all settle down in our own little nook of the maze and snooze away dreaming of the cheese.
First thing in the morning we scurry out again. Today will be the day. We get another good whiff of the cheese and we are off again. Again we greet and query each other as we meet in the maze. “What do you think? Is it over here? No I’ve been over there. Let’s try this way.” And the search continues.
Our great maze master checks in on us every so often to give us another whiff of the delightful prize and we are inspired again. So off we go turning this corner and going down that tunnel, searching for just the right path. It’s got to be here somewhere, we just know it. But by the end of the second day we are getting hungry and a little worried. But again we curl up in the maze and try to get some rest.
On the third day we start out a little groggy, not quite as bright as we were a couple of days ago. Our little furry foreheads are getting wrinkled. We should have been out of here yesterday, at least that was the plan. (Is that where that saying comes from? “The best laid plans of mice and men…”). So off we go again on our quest for the prize. One of these paths has to be the right one. But sometimes it’s one step forward and two steps back. The maze master keeps us going by giving us little units called numbers. Sometimes we get 16, then 20, then we’re back to 18. Oh, I think I’m getting dizzy. I think I’m going to faint.
But I hear some of the other mice giving encouragement and that’s just what we needed. The few of us that are left in the maze join hands and stagger forward, leaning on each other as we go. As we inch forward we begin to smell the aroma of the cheese again. Are we getting closer? The wonderfully sweet smell is so strong now.
So along we go as a deep fog sets in around us. Forward slowly inch by inch until finally the fog begins to clear. Is it possible? I think I can see the cheese but I’m not sure. I thought I had seen it days earlier but it was a mirage. Can this be the real prize? Am I at the end of the maze? I stand on my wobbly hind legs and stretch up for the prize but it is just out of my reach. I fall back in exhaustion and sleep where I lay.
I awake from my sleep as the sun streams into the maze. I focus my blurry eyes and draw in my first deep breath. Am I awake or just dreaming? Is this real? Yes, yes I’ve made it to the end of the maze and here beside me is the wondrous delicious dreamed of prize. I jump to my feet, call to all of my new maze friends and we savor the scrumptious treat.
Will I ever dare to enter another maze again? Hey why not?
I hope everyone is enjoying their own trip through the hidden objects and puzzles in Hidden Expedition Amazon!

WAY TO GO, LIZZIE!!! I knew you could do it, what an amazing effort. I had the same thought as SandyG, are you a writer (now or in a past life)? Love your analogy of the contest....made me laugh. Congratulations to you. And to everyone else who gave it a shot, good job. Can't wait to see what the next one will be. Keri

Thanks everyone so much for your kind comments. I’m not a writer. But sometimes I think its fun to put down my thoughts on paper, especially if I can do it with a little whimsy. Kudos to everyone who gave the contest a try. We all helped each other by sparking new ideas as we went along. Cheers to everyone!

I know this is late (had to work all day), but I want to add my congratulations to the bunch!!! Don't know you did it, but you have good perseverance!!!

I’m so glad to hear from you. You hung in there for a long time and when you weren’t guessing you were cheering on others. If you get a chance to read the story I wrote in Members Lounge I think you will have a chuckle. It’s under the topic – “Wandering and wondering in the acronyms for H E Amazon” in Members Lounge. -
Hey Lizzie, I did read it and had a great chuckle! It does sound like what we were doing! Some longer than others! You do have a great imagination, that is probably why you lasted so long! And Won!! LindaB

When I woke up this morning and saw that Lizzie won the contest I was so elated that I had to make a separate post to congratulate her.I'm truly amazed at how well she did, her enthusiasm and perseverance was outstanding!
The winning phrase that did it for Lizzie was:
The Gamezebo community knows that good things come in threes and that is why we are giving you a third chance to win Hidden Expedition Amazon.
Lizzie, as far as I know, is a recent addition to the Gamezebo Family but what a great asset she has been in her little time with us.
I hope the rest of our Gamezebo Family will join in and congratulate Lizzie as well. I know Lizzie had a lot of people rooting for her.
I will announce it on the contest page as well but I wanted to make it separate first. For those that would like to see that contest Click Hereto see the journey
A new contest is coming up for a brand new game very soon. This contest will be different than the one we did for HE Amazon....Stay tuned
