The (sold out) egg hunt in the junction!

Thanks, didn’t mention it because it’s sold out and it’s not going to be an en-masse type activity. We plan some coverage later, though.

  We bought two tickets for my two older kids to participate in the Easter egg hunt, and so many people who did not pay ended up running around collecting eggs, that my kids got zero eggs and now we are going to have to recreate an event that I already paid for in our own yard (which is why I paid, because I didn’t want to spend time doing this). Very disappointed.

    we got one single egg. This was my daughter’s first easter egg hunt (18 months old) and there were almost zero eggs to be found. It was an incredibly disappointing experience. Thankfully mostly disappointing for me since my daughter is too young to really care. Never doing that again…

    I get you’re disappointed but how can you be mad that poor kids participated. All kids should get to enjoy Easter, not just the rich.

  We had a ball at the egg hunt. My 19 month old found (with our help) a few eggs, and then we kept sneaking them out of the bag and rehiding them. She thought it was amazing! Luckily she’s too young to realize that the number of eggs in her bag wasn’t increasing 😂
