🛒🐧 Where’s Chilly the Penguin – Seattle Snack Run Edition! 🌧️☕

This week, Chilly joined the crew in Seattle, Washington as they stocked up on groceries and supplies for another busy week on the road.

Everything was going according to plan... until someone mentioned snacks. 👀

Now, if you've been following Chilly's adventures, you know he has two weaknesses:
1️⃣ Exploring new places
2️⃣ Free food

The moment the crew started loading up the cart, Chilly wandered off on a mission of his own. Was he looking for fish? Cookies? Something sweet? Something that reminds him of the islands? Nobody knows for sure.

What we do know is that by checkout time... Chilly was nowhere to be found.

• Be the FIRST to correctly DM us where Chilly is hiding and Answer to the trivia below
• Specific answers only — "by the food" doesn't count 😄
