Nancy Drew: Ransom of the Seven Ships Hints
Egg 2
1 of 6: There may be a hint for this one in the message from the bottles as well.
2 of 6: If you find all nine bottles, the pieces of paper inside form a quote from Edgar Allen Poe's poem, "The Raven." But the important part is the words and letters in red.
3 of 6: The letters in red spell out, "Deep in sand before the sharks seek this," and there's a drawing of what looks like a guava. Hmm.
4 of 6: To find this egg, get in the golf cart and drive past Shark Cove on the way to Sangre Beach. Keep your eyes peeled for an arrangement of shrubs that are in the shape of a guava, like on the drawing (well, sort of).
5 of 6: After you cross the bridge and the sand is turning pink, look for a turn-off on the left into the sand. Go that way and drive up onto the little scrubby weed things.
6 of 6: These will lead you into an open sand area ("deep in sand"), where Egg 2 is waiting for you, painted with a picture of a kitten wearing a pirate hat.
