Ummmm...yeah....
Got the first part but it's leading me to a place I can't figure out.
Edit: I'm hoping it ties into something else in the graphic, but I can't make it work.
I'm right there with you [2]
[2] and [3] ditto...
NM, just kept trying possibilities til one clicked... but I have NO idea why!

[5] How 'bout a little nudge? A grain of salt?
[5] Yes, salt please. BTW, did you get 1 point or 2 for this one?
I've got a strange sentence that could lead to a few answers...
[7] I got 1 point :(
For the answer, think of a specific location within the destination. It took me 1652 steps to get it right...
[9] Well, I've tried at least 1/2 that number...with no luck yet.
[9] Merci beaucoup.
Edit: Wow, 2nd.
Like everyone else, I'm stuck with the strange sentence. It seems like the numbers would have to come into play somehow.
Edit: They do! I finally got it.
[13] I would say the fourth clue should have yielded a different, more useful, word, but I'd just be babeling.
Edit: [12] I finally figured out how that worked.
sorry somehow this got posted as a warm up
[14] Yes, it was a lot of work for one point.
Edit: [16] Are you sure? My points went up only four. I was definitely credited with only 1 point for this one.
OK, that was a lot of work for 1 point.
Edit my points went up 5 today. I must have gotten 2 for this.
Geeze...8th. That was really hard!!!! Stupid thing is...I HAD the answer..1/2 hr ago, but entered the long form. Ugh.
this was worth more then one point.
helps to get the last word correct so you don't go off on a tangent like I did! URG....
I got two points. This is a second parter using the numbers to get the last word
[16], [20] That's not fair! The first people to solve the puzzle (eldurand was 1st, jmcintyre was 2nd, I was 3rd, ...) got only 1 point. But later solvers got 2 points? FOUL!
[21] et al... I got only one point. But I'm content with the fame and fortune of being second... ok, maybe not. :)
Good (though tough) puzzle. Interesting last step.
Is weird spelled wrong on purpose, or should I pursue that angle?
I must be doing something wrong. I've ended up with an anagram of "chown."
[25] You're doing the right thing. Just do it on the anagrammed words instead.
[9] That was a HUGE clue. Felt a little guilty googling it. :) But at least I got my two points.
ditto [27]
i cannot figure out the last clue for ANYTHING.
i came up with forschner knives from switzerland. lol.
Is the misspelling of weird intentional?
[30] No, sorry, the letters are still there anyway.
And I would've been here when it came up, but there was a double feature of Blazzing Saddles and Ghostbusters at the Grindhouse.
Wow - this puzzle is like a poster child for a good time to do PNG instead of JPEG...
That was...kind of dumb. A whole lot of red herrings ("festive beauty"?)--and what's with the fourth word, anyway?
[33] After following directions, to get the 4th word of the clue, move the first letter to the second K.
I found this one tricky to get started too...
[35] Sorry, I reworded it to give clearer directions after testing on a guinea pig. They got it the after rereading, and I tried hard not to involve duplicates too much.
