A 31-year-old Treasure Hunt

Have you ever been on a treasure hunt? This is a game where you go looking for something hidden. One of the most common treasure hunts in English-speaking countries is the Easter egg hunt. Adults hide chocolate or painted eggs around the garden, and children have fun looking for them. There are also treasure hunts for adults. One of the longest treasure hunts ever ended recently. A French writer made an owl out of gold and silver, and he buried it in 1993. He wrote a book about it with 11 puzzles. People had to solve all the puzzles to find the owl. Over the years, about 200,000 people went looking for it, but no one found it until October 3 this year. Now, there is one very happy treasure hunter, and there are 200,000 very disappointed treasure hunters. (139 words)
