Escape room experience

I had my first escape room experience yesterday.  Our group consisted of seven relatives including me.  I was the only member of the group who had not done an escape room before.  You may know that one enters the room with a time limit to figure how to escape. There were many locks guarding clues and procedures on how to escape. We had about an hour to escape and we managed to get out in about 45 minutes.  

I write "we" but it was all the other members of our family group.  My impulse was to sit quietly and meditate but that would have been a defeat.  I guess our greatgranddaughter who works there and my son-in-law who built the place felt our group did ok.
