Back now.
As I was driving to the maze, the skies started getting darker. I was thinking I should have checked the weather before leaving. Ten minutes before arrival there were a few droplets on my windshield. I decided that come hell or high water I was going to do this maze.
I arrived and there didn’t seem to be any rain, so I was good to go. I looked at the overhead picture just to get an idea, and then off I went. My biggest obstacle in the maze was to avoid other people. They would provide a hint that I didn’t want. Other than that, it was fun. There were signpost every so often that would indicate how far one had gone through. In theory you were supposed to use a page of trivia questions to figure out which way to go from them. But the answers were printed on the back of the sheet, and both paths that you could choose from went to the same destination within 10 meters. The posts were more waypoints than clues.
All in all, I got out of the maze in fifty minutes. It was getting darker while I was in it, and the wind was picking up. Lightning was visible in the distance Ten minutes after leaving it started raining.
I made it just in time.
And they said the average person took an hour and a half. Good thing I wasn’t average today. But mind you, I did forget my wallet, so I can’t feel clever.
This evening I have volunteer work at a casino. So I will be up late. Thankfully there is no smoking in public places anymore, so I won’t smell like a chimney.
