Unfortunately, we couldn’t do 2 riddles. One church was closed and to solve the riddle we had to go inside (Molly Malone). The second one was the national museum of archeology (building activity). It has a new entrance recently. So we hadn’t had a good view to the building to complete the error search properly…

Die Schnitzeljagd war wirklich eine lustige Tour durch die Stadt. Manche R?tsel sind einfacher als andere. Wir fanden es gut das man zwischendurch seine Pausen machen konnte oder sogar am n?chsten Tag erst weiter l?uft.
