I’m with the doubters, sitting at the bar trying to find something more convincing than the first and most obvious answer. I smell a 3D.

On shore. Happy Easter and Happy Passover to everyone, and safe travels to all on the road.

I'm with the doubters, too. Have an answer that I'm going to sit and discuss with Isaac for a bit...

You know, it’s ironic that we called it a “rabbit hole” when we’re stuck, because rabbit holes exist only on land, and that’s not where you metaphorically are while you explore the rabbit hole.

Anyway, I’m on land - a beach, to be specific, after exploring a rabbit hole asea.

Quick solve today. I predict a bumper crop of shore-bound muggles this weekend.

That was fast....for me. I am going with the obvious answer and will enjoy the Easter weekend. (Loved the comment that the meta was so easy that there must have been a deadline looming!) Ashore.

I'm sure I've got this one. I'd say its a bunny - an Easter Bunny.

Ashore4us! This one left us feeling a little adrift, but we've got it. A Smithwicks Red Ale please!

We are always happy to get to know other muggles and help in any way! PM's are always welcome. The next best thing to winning a mug is helping a fellow muggle win a mug!

There was a strong rabbit hole that took us hours to climb out of!

I was way overthinking this. Ashore. Maybe something with a little umbrella this time.
