The Egg-mazing Race

One thing that is important to my life is setting small goals and trying to accomplish them.  It's how I make the most of certain things. I have a quite a few of those for my time in London. (Although ones like "Journal every day" have failed miserably!)  Yesterday, I was reading the Evening Standard (free, nightly newspaper) on the tube, and saw an article about a quirky fundraising event that is starting up soon in London.

The Big Egg Hunt!

Basically, this Tuesday, 200 huge egg sculptures will be spread across the city of London.  Each individual egg has been decorated, painted, or dressed up by artists, fashion designers, and even kids.  This organization has put out maps, made an app, and even a website for people to try to find these eggs in all parts of the city.  At the end, each egg will be auctioned off and all proceeds will go toward a charity.

My goal is to get a picture of 75 of these eggs.  While I don't see it possible to get a picture of 200, I'm going to try to see as many as possible.  Why would I do this?  It's a unique thing and by taking a few hours every once in a while to search out these eggs, I will be exploring parts of this great city I have not yet been to and seeing areas of London that I gotten to experience.  Not to mention, I will be in London for Easter and will not get to hunt eggs with my little cousins like I normally do.

The hunt is on!
